Abstract

Fibre is very essential for our daily diet. It has many benefits in regulatory functions and digestive health. It also has some good effect on cholesterol and sugar levels. Fibre is very much effective in prevent dangerous diseases such as cancer, diabetes and cardio vascular diseases. So, an attempt was made to prepare high fibre flat bread using powdered peel of banana. Flour used for making flat bread is replaced by banana peel powder at a proportion of 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. Peeled banana powder been employed to improve the amount of nutrients in various foods. polyunsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, potassium, magnesium, and protein., and amino acids are also abundant in banana peels. Banana peel flour can replace 5% to 10% of the wheat in bread to provide nutrition without detracting from flavor, color, scent, or texture. Compared to the cookies baked with the least quantity of banana peel flour, the control group and other cookies with larger concentrations of banana peel earned lower ratings for their texture and overall acceptability. Compared to the cookies baked with the least quantity of banana peel flour, the control group and other cookies with larger concentrations of banana peel earned lower ratings for their texture and overall acceptability. study for one week and found that total plate count and moisture content are at safe level after keeping at storage of one week packaged in polythene bag. These findings suggest that a low concentration substitution of banana peel for flour could improve the nutritional profile of bread without impairing its sensory qualities.
