Abstract

This study was carried out with the aim of developing multi whole grain nutritious flours. Two wheat varieties were used as control; one soft and other medium hard wheat. Different formulations were prepared with replacement of wheat flour in the proportion of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25%. The obtained flours were evaluated for the physico-chemical and nutritional characteristics. With increase in incorporation of the multi whole grain flours in the formulation an increase in protein content was observed from 12.69 to about 13.84% and from 14.14 to 14.83% for the formulation with soft and medium hard wheat respectively. Flour obtained from different formulation, varied in colour compared with control atta and shown decrease in redness. Mineral content and amino acid profiles have shown positive increase. Work carried out indicates the improvement of the overall nutritional quality of the atta and provides a scope for the utilization of the developed atta, which offers diverse health benefits of different whole grains, in the foods like chapati and tortillas which are staple food of a significant volume of population which consumes them on daily basis.
