Summary

The practice abstract provides recommendations for the production of a bread enriched with faba bean flour

EPrint Type:	Practice tool
What problem does the tool address?:	Bakers lack practical methods and technical knowledge to produce protein-enriched bread using local, natural ingredients, without compromising on sensory quality.
What solution does the tool offer?:	Legume flours are a local source of protein and fibre, with the ability to compliment the nutritional quality of cereal-based foods. The substitution of wheat flour with faba bean flour (10 to 30%) into bread recipes is a natural way to increase protein content and composition.
