Abstract
Study aimed at the standardization and preparation Ready-to-eat (RTE) breakfast Bajra choco flakes were processed and formulations suitable for human consumption. Flakes formulated from blends of 30%, 35% and 40% bajra flour and other ingredients. bajra used due to its unique nutritional properties. Flakes are made primarily from Bajra flour, Almond powder, Suji, Milk powder etc. in about that order of the quantities produced, usually with added flavor and fortifying ingredients. The flakes were evaluated for their organoleptic acceptability, nutritional composition and functional properties. The results of the sensory evaluation showed that the (40% Bajra flour) T3 sample selected and acceptance in all the appearance, colour, flavour, aftertaste, texture and overall acceptability parameter. Sensory evaluation done through 9 point hedonic scale and sample T3 selected for the further study. Prepared sample physiochemical properties observed that The physical properties of Bajra choco flakes observed that 1000 flakes weight 15.43±1.09g, 1000 flakes volume (ml) 9.33±1.04, Bulk density 0.43±0.05, Length (mm/inch) 4.05±0.52, Breadth (mm/inch) 3.49±0.48, Thickness (mm/inch) 0.67 ±0.18 respectively and Chemical properties of Bajra Choco flakes analyzed that Ash-1 0.05, Moisture-3.2± 0.05, Energy-579.6 Kcal, Fat-29  0.06, CHO-71.05  0.02 and Protein-8.6±0.03 respectively. All the vales determined by AOAC methods. Flakes were relatively shelf-stable, lightweight, and convenient to ship and store. The original hot cereals required cooking in the home before they were ready for consumption, but flakes prepared ready for consumption with the addition of either hot water or milk to the cereal in the bowl.
