Use of Camelina Flour When Producing Flour Confectionery Products

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to determine the possibility of using camelina flour obtained from camelina cake for the production of flour confectionery products. Tasks: to grind the original camelina cake into camelina flour and camelina bran; to develop a recipe for flour confectionery products gingerbread and cake health with the addition of 5 to 20 % camelina flour instead of premium wheat baking flour; to conduct an organoleptic assessment and determine the physico-chemical quality indicators of gingerbread and health cakes made from wheat-camelina flour of various ratios. The object of study is camelina flour. A recipe has been developed for a Stolichny type cake and gingerbread made from whole-ground wheat and camelina flour of various ratios with premium-grade wheat baking flour. The parameters and modes for preparing flour confectionery products in the form of cakes and gingerbread have been established. Adding camelina flour to the recipe for both cakes and gingerbread leads to an increase in humidity, alkalinity and the mass fraction of fat in the finished products. The most optimal ratio of premium wheat flour and camelina flour for the production of products is the ratio of 9 : 1, at which the finished products have the most attractive presentation and good organoleptic characteristics. Compared to control samples of flour confectionery made from premium wheat flour, in products made from wheat-camelina flour there is an increase in the content of protein, fats, including polyunsaturated fatty acids, essential amino acids, including limiting ones. Based on the results of research, we can recommend the use of a composite flour mixture of premium wheat flour and camelina flour for the production of flour confectionery products of increased nutritional value at existing confectionery enterprises.
