Abstract

Bread was enhanced with defatted moringa seed flour in various quantities (0-7.5%) in this investigation. The functional properties of the flour and the physical, proximate, mineral content and sensory attributes of the defatted moringa fortified bread samples were evaluated. The functional properties of the defatted moringa seed flour showed Bulk Density (0.75g/ml), Oil Absorption Capacity (88.45 %), Reconstitution index (76.28 %), Swelling index (8.25 g/vol), Solubility (8.63 %), Viscosity (342.60 cp), and Water Absorption Capacity (82.45 %). Results of the proximate analysis showed that defatted moringa seed flour addition significantly (p < 0.05) increased the protein (13.82–15.39%), fat (1.25–1.56%), ash (1.51–1.61%) and fibre content (0.13–0.18%) of the bread samples, while the moisture (7.85–7.60%), carbohydrates content (75.44–72.88%) and pH (8.05-7.8%) of the bread decreased. Addition of defatted moringa seed flour significantly (p<0.05) decreased the loaf heights from 10.50 to 6.90 (cm), loaf weights from 133.1 to 118.0 (g), loaf volumes from 1148 to 671(cm3) and the specific volumes from 9.05 to 5.55 (g/cm3). The mineral contents (calcium, Iron, Sodium, potassium, and Phosphorus) of the moringa fortified bread also increased significantly as the proportion of defatted moringa seed flour. Results of the sensory evaluation indicated that the 5% defatted moringa fortified bread was not significantly different from the bread produced from 100% wheat flour in terms of most of the quality attributes evaluated in this study. In conclusion, fortification of bread with defatted moringa seed flour increased both the micro and macronutrient of conventional bread and acceptable to consumers at 5% fortification level.
