Although millet flour lacks gluten, however it is a rich source of protein, amino acids, energy, vitamins and nutritional ingredients in comparing with other cereal grains. In addition, it is overfilled of dietary fibers, phytochemical materials and micronutrients as well. In current research the effect of millet and wheat flour combinations in bread making was evaluated at different percentages of substitutions (10, 30 and 50 %). Baking properties of different bread samples were evaluated and related parameters with bread quality including volume, height, textural attributes (hardness, adhesiveness and cohesiveness), bread color and sensorial characteristic analyzed and compared with control bread. Results revealed that height and volume decreased but bread hardness increased with increase in substitution level. Color indices decreased for crust; however similar behavior was not observed for crumb. Interesting results observed by sensorial analysis. Total acceptance was higher in comparison with control bread due to different texture and taste. But this total acceptance decreased with substitution. The results of current research revealed high potential of millet flour for further usage in different food formulation.

Dairy desserts are milk-based products that play an important role in maintaining the mankind diet because of their nutritional value. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of adding millet flour on quality characteristics of dairy desserts based on rice flour. Desserts were produced using millet flour at different contents (0, 10, 20, 40 and 50%) and their physicochemical, textural and sensory properties were investigated. The results showed that desserts with millet flour had less moisture content and sugar, but more ash and fat content (p˂0.05). The acidity and pH of the dairy dessert samples were affected by the storage time and the amount of millet flour. With increasing time, the acidity of the product increased and pH decrease due to the prebiotic properties of millet flour, which provides the conditions for better growth and development of lactic acid bacteria. Millet flour decreased L * value, but indices a * and b * values increased significantly (p˂0.05). The results of texture tests showed that with increasing the concentration of millet flour, the texture properties (hardness, adhesion and resilience) of dairy desserts improve. Evaluation of sensory characteristics of the samples indicates that desserts with low and medium amounts of millet flour had the highest sensory acceptability amount.

The production of composite breads, in addition to reducing dependence on wheat, will improve the nutritional value of the final product and diversify the consumer food basket. So, the aim of this study was investigation of the effect of replacing wheat flour by millet flour at levels of 10, 20 and 30% in formulation at the presence of different ratios of guar-xanthan gums (0.3-0.1, 0.6-0.15 and 0.9-0.2%) on dough rheological properties and physicochemical and sensorial characteristics of semi volume Barbari bread in completely randomized factorial design (p˂0.05). The results of farinograph test showed that the amount of water absorption, dough development time, stability time and value of the dough valorimeter decreased by increasing the amount of millet flour in the formulation and increased by increasing amount of gum and xanthan gum. Also, the results indicated the moisture content and specific volume by increasing the amount of millet flour and addition gums, were decreased and increased respectively. Although the amount of water activity and texture firmness (2 h and 3 days after baking) were increased, while by increasing the amount of gums, these qualitative parameters were decreased. The results of evaluation crust color showed the L* and a* values were decreased and the a* value was increased by addition millet flour. On the other hand by adding different levels of gums the L* and a* values were increased and had no significant effect on b* value. In the sensory evaluation, the sample containing 10% millet flour, 0.9% of guar and 0.2% xanthan was introduced as the best sample by panelists.

Cookies and biscuit  might be included in the list of gluten-free products for patients with celiac disease However, most gluten-free bakery products are commercially based on pure starch, blend of maize starch and gluten-free flour, and protein which lead to dryness and sandy state of the final product. In this regard, there is a strong need to develop gluten-free cookies that are technologically complete as well as economical. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the functional properties of flours and different ratios of millet flour and rice flour (50:50, 25:75, 15:85, 0: 100) in the preparation of gluten-free cookies. Physicochemical properties of millet grain (moisture, fat, protein, ash, and fiber), flour (water absorption, oil absorption), and cookies (diameter, thickness, degree of expansion, color, and stiffness) were also investigated. The results showed that replacing rice flour with higher levels of millet flour led to an increase in water holding capacity (WHC) and decrease in  oil absorption capacity (OAC), significantly (p<0.05). Higher amounts of millet flour showed a significant linear relation with degree of expansion in the cookies (p<0.05) and lightness (L*) of the samples decreased due to increased protein content and Millard reaction. Moreover, higher replacement of rice flour with millet flour in the cookies resulted in higher hardness and cooking loss but lower water activity and lightness(L*). The highest overall accessibility rate was for a cookie containing 15% millet flour

In this study, effect of heat-moisture treatment of proso millet flour on the textural characteristics of gluten-free cake during storage was investigated. Millet flour was treated with two different moisture contents (20% and 30%) at two temperatures (100C and 120C), and then different amounts (0–100%) of treated flours were used in cake formulation. Specific volume, sensory acceptance, microstructure, moisture content and texture parameters of cake crumb on the baking day, and 3rd, 6th and 9th days of storage were studied. The results showed that increasing the intensity of heat-moisture treatment and also increasing the treated flour content increased the moisture content of cake crumb in the baking day. The cakes containing flour treated at 30% of moisture and 100C had high volume with softest texture but cakes prepared from flour treated at 30% of moisture and 120C had a compact and dense texture with the highest hardness values. With increasing storage time, the moisture content of cake crumb decreased and the hardness of that increased, and heat-moisture treatment could not reduce the rate of moisture loss and hardening during storage. Using of heat-moisture treated flour did not improve cohesiveness and springiness of the cake in baking day but a greater reduction of cohesiveness and springiness was observed for control sample during 9-day storage. The findings in this work provide evidence that heatmoisture treatment of millet flour could improve quality of cake.
