Abstract
An I-optimal response surface experimental design revealed impacts of dough moisture content (DMC, 14–22%) and level of wheat flour substitution (10–50%) by wheat gluten and one of six different native starches [wheat, (waxy) maize, rice, potato, pea] on sugar-snap cookie starch thermal properties, in vitro starch digestion, dough and cookie hardness and spread ratio. Increasing DMCs from 14 to 22% increased the cookie starch digestion rate constants of each starch source used. A linear increase of the constant by 25–30% across the 14 to 22% DMC range for all starches was predicted and validated. That cookie spread and hardness were related to the water retention capacity of the native starches used suggested that they underwent limited changes during baking. For each starch examined, formulations were optimized to lower in vitro starch digestion rate and extent, and cookie hardness, while maximizing dough spread ratio.
