Abstract
This study was planned to utilize by-products of baby corn, which was powdered upon drying. Different formulations containing baby corn: defatted soya: plantain: finger millet flours at 10:65:20:5, 15:55:20:10, 20:45:20:15 and 25:35:20:20 were prepared and analyzed for functional, nutritional and bioactive properties of the blended flours and muffins. The outcomes indicated that incorporation of baby corn flour had enhanced functional and pasting properties of the blended flours. The addition of baby corn flour increased the antioxidant properties and metal chelating activity of blended flours. The incorporation of baby corn flour had contributed better retention of antioxidant potential during baking as muffins with 25% baby corn showed more increase in antioxidant properties than 10% baby corn muffins. Hardness and specific volume of muffins increased, while total phenol content decreased significantly with increment in the level of baby corn flour. On the basis of sensory analysis muffins prepared with 20% level of baby corn flour was selected best. This study concluded that by-products of baby corn can be utilized for development of gluten free muffins with better nutrition and bioactive properties.
