ABSTRACT
Shortbread biscuits
were made by supplementing wheat flour (WF) with water yam flour (WYF) after
the seeds have been sorted, sun dried, milled, and sieved into fine flour using
a sieve size of 0.4mm and used at various proportions of the sample 102-107
(70: 30:%, 50: 50%; and 40: 60%) and sample 101(100% whole wheat) as control.
The functional properties, proximate composition, sensory properties and
physical properties of water yam, and wheat flours were determined. The
proximate composition of the biscuit samples dry matter, moisture, protein,
fat, fibre, ash, carbohydrate and energy value content ranged from 94.900 —
97.43%, 2.57-5.10%, 11.02-
12.04%,9.35-14.03%,0.52-1.28%,2.01-2.65%,65.96-73.20% and 421.03-436.95kca1
respectively. There were significant differences (
