Abstract

The characterization of pancake and bread made with fructooligosaccharides (FOS) were carried out by analyzing the content of moisture, proteins, ashes and fats; the carbohydrates were determined by difference. The height and diameter, volume and specific volume of the foodstuffs were measured and descriptive sensory profiles of were made. The 19% FOS pancakes presented 22.76% moisture, 6.89% protein, 2.16% ash, 18.54% fat and 49.65% carbohydrates. The height of the foodstuff was 7.25 cm and the specific volume of 2.3 cm3/g. Bread with 7.1% FOS presented 32.67% moisture, 7.58% protein, 1.73% ash, 7.58% fat and 54.56% carbohydrates. The height of the pieces was 6.3 cm and their diameter was 10.45 cm, the specific volume was 5.32 cm3/g. Both products were sensory evaluated as good.

Keywords: fructooligosaccharides, pancake, bread.
