Physicochemical and structural impact of CMC-hydrocolloids on the development of gluten-free foxtail millet biscuits.

ABSTRACT: Patients with celiac disease and those who are gluten intolerant have a need for gluten-free bakery items but developing them is a challenge for technologists and dietitians. Foxtail millets are naturally gluten-free and nutrient-dense grains. Herein, CMC-modified foxtail millet biscuits (CFMBs) were prepared using 0.01%, 0.05%, and 0.1% of CMC hydrocolloids with foxtail millet flour. The effects of CFMBs on the physicochemical properties, sensory, and morphology were investigated and compared with wheat (WB-100) and foxtail millet (FMB-100) products. CFMBs were thicker, had a larger specific volume, and had a lower diameter and spread ratio than FMB-100. CFMB-0.1 exhibited higher moisture content, higher water activity, and lower fat content than FMB-100 and WB-100. The hardness of CFMB-0
