The proximate composition of the bread samples are given in Table 3.
The increased supplementation of wheat flour with sesame flour significantly affected the chemical quality of composite bread.
The values for moisture, protein, fat, fibre and ash increased with increasing levels of sesame supplementation except for carbohydrate and energy contents.
There was an increase in the protein content of the composite bread samples with sesame-flour supplementation in the range of 10.3 to 14.8% compared to the control (9.2%).
This is because the WF has lower protein content than the SF. The fat content also increased from a value of 3.7% (control) to a range of 5.8- 10.0% in composite bread samples produced from sesame flour supplementation.
