The present disclosure relates generally to flour compositions for use in baking and other culinary applications. In particular, the disclosure relates to flour compositions comprising popcorn flour, and their use as gluten-free substitutes for wheat and other gluten-containing flours.

A reconstituted reduced FODMAPS wheat gluten protein-based flour is disclosed for use in producing a food product suitable for consumption by a wheat intolerant consumer without development of associated defining symptoms of wheat intolerance The reduced FODMAPS wheat gluten protein-based flour includes as a constituent a proportion of wheat gluten protein recovered from a source wheat flour and additional constituents of types which have been recovered from wheat flour or other non-wheat source and which have been substantially depleted of FODMAPS content.

A dry particulate mix for use in yeast leavened bakery products, includes: 3-90 wt. % of non-fermentable carbohydrates, including at least 3 wt. % of a non-fermentable sugar alcohol; 0-50 wt. % of fermentable sugars; two or more bakery ingredients selected from the group consisting of: 10-90 wt. % of viable yeast; 10-50 wt. % of baking powder; 5-90 wt. % of emulsifier; 3-50 wt. % of ascorbic acid; and 0.0001-1 wt. % of bakery enzyme;
all of these percentages being calculated on the combined amount of these two to five bakery ingredients; and wherein the weight ratio of non-fermentable carbohydrates to fermentable sugars exceeds 1:1. A sweetened dough is obtainable by incorporating therein 3-75% by weight of the final dough of the dry particulate mix.

Methods and products related to a baked cereal product having a pre-baked SA content and a post-baked SAG content, wherein the post-baked SAG content is less than about 25% below the pre-baked SAG content.

An organoleptically pleasing snack food chip that contains a low amount of carbohydrates, a good source of protein, and delivers a crunchy texture includes from about 15% to about 35% of almond flour; from about 20% to about 40% of a source of protein; from about 1% to about 5% of a starch; from about 0.1% to about 2% of a leavening agent; from about 20% to about 55% of oil; and has a moisture content between about 0.1% and about 3%. The almond flour may include a mixture of different types of almond flour. The source of protein may include one or more of one or more milk proteins, one or more plant proteins, and one or more seed proteins.

The present invention provides products and methods for improving the tolerance of a dough in bakery and patisserie products. More specifically it provides sourdough products obtained through the fermentation of cereals by specific strains of bacteria. The products obtained by using said sourdough products are characterized by having a strengthened dough resulting in bakery and patisserie products with improved physical properties and taste.

Disclosed herein are non-egg compositions that can be used as egg substitutes. The disclosure is directed to egg substitutes and methods of manufacturing the same, and compositions comprising the egg substitutes, including edible compositions such as baked goods and edible emulsions.

A system and method for the production of doughs and products using textured pulse proteins, including legume-based crunchy snack foods, said method comprising the steps of: homogenization of ingredients in the form of dry feed powders, mixing and hydration of powders with liquid ingredients to form a dough, forming of the dough into form factors, drying and expansion of the form factors to develop texture and shelf stability, and cooling.

The present invention relates to compositions and methods for the improvement of bakery products, in particular for the improvement of the texture of cakes and the tolerance of bakery doughs.
