SummaryTotal phenol and flavonoid amounts of breads with poppy paste at different concentrations were established between 41.94 (control) and 56.71 mg GAE per 100 g (poppy paste 20%) to 72.14 (control) and 379.29 mg per 100 g (poppy paste 30%), respectively. Antioxidant capacity values of breads varied between 0.08 (control) and 1.04 mmol kg−1 (poppy paste 30%). L* results of breads were determined between 64.86 and 75.07, while a* and b* results vary between 0.51 and 5.47; 20.97 and 25.96, respectively. Gallic acid and 3,4‐dihydroxybenzoic acid contents of breads were determined between 13.00 (poppy paste 30%) and 63.21 mg per 100 g (poppy paste 20%) to 23.71 (poppy paste 10%) and 36.57 mg per 100 g (poppy paste 20%), respectively. Oleic and linoleic acid values of the bread oils were determined between 34.44% (control) and 40.06% (poppy paste 30%) to 34.945 (control) and 46.69% (poppy paste 10%), respectively. As a result, the most popular bread samples were enriched with 20% poppy paste, followed by 30%, control and 10% poppy paste added bread samples in decreasing order.
