ABSTRACT
The use of wheat and fluted
pumpkin seed flour blends in the production of functional doughnuts was
studied. The flour blends of whole wheat and fluted pumpkin seed were composite
at replacement levels of 5iO, and 15% while the wheat flour doughnut served as
control. The proximate composition and functional properties of the fluted
pumpkin seed flour blends used for the preparation of the doughnuts were
determined using standard methods. The doughnut produced were subsequently
evaluated for their nutritional composition and sensory attributes. The
physico-chernical analyses results obtained showed a decrease in the range of
9.0% for moisture. 3.0% for protein, 30.0% for fat, 2.35% for crude fibre,
0.40% for ash and an increase in carbohydrate 48%. There was also a decrease in
doughnut volume and dough expansion by with progressive inclusion of the fluted
pumpkin flour. The sensory analysis showed that there was a significant
difference observed between the wheat doughnut and the fluted pumpkin samples
in the sensory attributes of colour and appearance, While significant
difference (p
