The use of whole wheat and banana flour blends in the production of toasted breads
was studied, essentially, to determine the effect of banana flour on the sensory
qualities of toasted bread. The flour blends of whole wheat and banana were
composites at varying inclusion levels of 10, 20 and 30% as samples B, C and D
respectively, while the whole wheat flour toasted bread (sample A) served as control.
The bread loaves were produced using the straight-dough procedure and were
subsequently evaluated for their sensory attributes. The sensory analysis showed that
there was no significant difference between the whole wheat toasted bread and the
banana fortified samples in the sensory attributes of taste, aroma, appearance and
texture. While significant difference (p
