SCHEUER, Patricia M et al. Evaluation of whole-wheat flour blends with fat replacer. Rev. cienc. tecnol. [online]. 2017, n.28, pp.4-10. ISSN 1851-7587.

A diet rich in low-fat dietary fiber helps to prevent chronic diseases. The use of whole wheat flour and fat substitute, adds nutritional value. Fat substitutes act by reducing the caloric level. The bran affects the rheological properties and the quality of the bread. Considering the challenge of adding nutritional value, maintaining the structure and stability of the crumb, our objective was to evaluate the physicochemical and rheological characteristics of whole wheat flour blends with fat substitute for future application in breads. The gluten values of the flour blends indicated that they were technologically acceptable for baking. The effect of the presence of the fat substitute was observed only in the alveography and in the color of the samples with higher level of substitute, because at a higher substitute level, the lower the results of the maximum tenacity of work.

Palabras clave : Physicochemical properties; Rheology; Fat Substitute.
