ABSTRACT
Flour blends with
different proportions were prepared from cooking banana (Musa cardaba), soybean
(Glycine mar) and wheat (Triticum aestivum). The different sampies of the flour
blends were used to produce cream crackers biscuits. The cream crackers biscuit
samples produced were evaluated for proximate composition, sensory properties
and physical properties. The result of the proximate composition of the biscuit
samples ranged from 11.03 — 12.43% moisture, 0.75-1 .31% ash content, 0.11
-0.14% crude fibre, 4.13- 5.24% fat content, 5.31-6.78% protein content,
75.57-77.33% carbohydrate, and 365.27- 3 76.50% caloric value. The physical
properties of the biscuit samples ranged from 9.46- 13.43g weight, 0.43-0.63cm
height, 7.03-7.13cm diameter, 10.28-14.34cm spread ratio and 179.30-219.27g
break strength. The sensory evaluation conducted on the cream crackers biscuit
samples showed that the control sample 314 (lOo% whole wheat flour) was the
most accepted by the panelists. However, samples 521(wheat: cooking banana:
undehulled soybean flour (90:5:5)) and 225(wheat: cooking banana: dehulled
soybean flour (85:10:5)) competed fhvourably with 100% whole wheat in terms of
consumers acceptability
