Description:
RELATED APPLICATION  
       [0001]     This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/620,019, filed Jul. 15, 2003, incorporated by reference herein. 
     
    
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION  
       [0002]     1. Field of the Invention  
         [0003]     The present invention generally pertains to improved bakery products (particularly wheat-containing bakery products and doughs) having higher protein and lower carbohydrate contents when compared with similar, more traditional bakery products and doughs. Products according to the invention comprise a first protein source along with a second proteinaceous ingredient and, optionally, a quantity of resistant starch.  
         [0004]     2. Description of the Prior Art  
         [0005]     The rise in popularity of high-protein diets has increased the demand for high-protein, and consequently, low carbohydrate substitutes for foods, particularly bakery products, which typically contain a significant amount of carbohydrate. Many attempts have been made to decrease the carbohydrate level in these products by substituting a protein source for flour in the product&#39;s formulation. While this approach has solved the problem of providing a high-protein, low-carbohydrate product, generally, the resulting product does not have the handling characteristics, loaf volume, crumb grain, texture, or flavor of a traditional bakery product.  
         [0006]     For example, if vital wheat gluten is used in large amounts in the production of bread dough, the dough will be too strong or bucky and difficult to handle during mixing, dividing, sheeting, and molding. Also, high levels of protein such as soy protein may adversely affect flavor and give unacceptable volume and crumb grain properties.  
         [0007]     Therefore, there exists a real need in the art for a high-protein, low-carbohydrate bakery product which closely resembles a traditional bakery product. The bakery product should exhibit dough handling, machinability, loaf volume, crumb grain, and flavor characteristics similar to those of a traditional bakery product.  
       SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION  
       [0008]     The present invention overcomes the above problems and provides a high-protein, low-carbohydrate bakery product which exhibits dough handling properties, loaf volume, crumb grain, and flavor characteristics similar to those of a traditional bakery product. As used herein, the term “high-protein, low-carbohydrate bakery product” refers to compositions which contain higher protein and lower carbohydrate amounts relative to more traditional-type products. The term “bakery product” includes, but is not limited to leavened or unleavened, traditionally flour-based products such as white pan and whole wheat breads (including sponge and dough bread), cakes, pretzels, muffins, doughnuts, brownies, cookies, pancakes, biscuits, rolls, crackers, pie crusts, pizza crusts, hamburger buns, pita bread, and tortillas.  
         [0009]     In addition to comprising a quantity of flour (particularly wheat flour), preferred bakery products (including doughs) according to the invention comprise from about 1-150 baker&#39;s percent of a first proteinaceous ingredient (preferably from about 5-60 baker&#39;s percent) comprising at least about 70% by weight protein and a second proteinaceous ingredient (preferably different from the first ingredient) selected from the group consisting of: 
        (a) between about 0.5-100 baker&#39;s percent of a wheat protein isolate product;     (b) between about 0.5-100 baker&#39;s percent of a wheat protein concentrate product;     (c) between about 0.5-100 baker&#39;s percent of a devitalized wheat gluten product;     (d) between about 0.5-20 baker&#39;s percent of a fractionated wheat protein product;     (e) between about 0.5-20 baker&#39;s percent of a deamidated wheat gluten product;     (f) between about 0.5-30 baker&#39;s percent of a hydrolyzed wheat protein product; and     (g) any combination of ingredients (a)-(f).        
 
         [0017]     As used herein, the term “baker&#39;s percentage” means the weight percent taken on a flour basis, with the weight of flour present in the product being 100%.  
         [0018]     Furthermore, all protein weight percentages expressed herein are on a N×6.25, dry basis, unless otherwise specified.  
         [0019]     Wheat protein isolates are generally derived from wheat gluten by taking advantage of gluten&#39;s solubility at alkaline or acidic pH values. Wheat gluten is soluble in aqueous solutions with an acidic or alkaline pH and exhibits a classical “U-shaped” solubility curve with a minimum solubility or isoelectric point at pH 6.5-7.0. By dissolving the gluten, proteins can be separated from non-protein components by processes like filtration, centrifugation, or membrane processing followed by spray drying. Alternatively, wet gluten from wet processing of wheat flour can be repeatedly kneaded, water washed, and dewatered to get rid of contaminating starch and other non-protein components, and subsequently flash dried. These techniques yield a wheat protein isolate product with elevated protein content, at least about 85% by weight, more preferably at least about 90% by weight (on an N×6.25, dry basis). Wheat protein isolates are less elastic but more extensible than wheat gluten. Examples of preferred wheat protein isolates include Arise™ 3000, Arise™ 5000, and Arise™ 6000 available from MGP Ingredients, Inc., Atchison, Kans.  
         [0020]     Wheat protein concentrates are proteinaceous compositions which preferably have protein contents of at least about 70% by weight, and preferably at least about 82% by weight (N×6.25, dry basis). Wheat protein concentrates may be of different varieties manufactured by a number of different methods. Vital wheat gluten is one type of wheat protein concentrate that has a protein content of at least about 82% by weight (N×6.25, dry basis). Vital wheat gluten is a viscoelastic protein manufactured by a flash drying method. Additional types of wheat protein concentrates are manufactured by dispersing wet gluten in an ammonia solution followed by spray drying. These wheat protein concentrates exhibit lesser viscoelastic properties than vital wheat gluten but tend to be more extensible. Examples of the latter type of wheat protein concentrates include FP 300, FP 500, FP 600, and FP 800 available from MGP Ingredients.  
         [0021]     Wheat gluten can be devitalized (or rendered non-vital) by the application of moisture, heat, pressure, shear, enzymes, and/or chemicals. Devitalized gluten is characterized by denaturation of proteins where structural changes occur and certain bonds are broken resulting in a product that is non-cohesive and lacks viscoelasticity. Typical processing equipment used to carry out this devitalization include extruders, jet-cookers, and drum-driers. For example, wheat gluten may undergo extrusion processing to produce a texturized product which does not exhibit the same viscoelastic properties of typical wheat gluten. In other words, the devitalized gluten does not form a rubbery and/or extensible dough when hydrated. Devitalized wheat gluten preferably comprises at least about 60% by weight protein, and more preferably at least about 70% by weight (N×6.25, dry basis). Examples of devitalized wheat gluten for use with the present invention are Wheatex™ 16, Wheatex™ 120, Wheatex™ 240, Wheatex™ 751, Wheatex™ 1501, Wheatex™ 2120, Wheatex™ 2240, Wheatex™ 2400, Wheatex™ 3000, Wheatex™ 6000, and Wheatex™ 6500 available from MGP Ingredients.  
         [0022]     Wheat gluten is a binary mixture of gliadin and glutenin. These components can be separated by alcohol fractionation or by using a non-alcoholic process (as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,610,277) employing the use of organic acids. Gliadin is soluble in 60-70% alcohol and comprises monomeric proteins with molecular weights ranging from 30,000 to 50,000 daltons. These proteins are classified as alpha-, beta-, gamma-, and omega-gliadins depending on their mobility during electrophoresis at low pH. Gliadin is primarily responsible for the extensible properties of wheat gluten. Glutenin is the alcohol insoluble fraction and contributes primarily to the elastic or rubbery properties of wheat gluten. Glutenin is a polymeric protein stabilized with inter-chain disulfide bonds and made up of high-molecular weight and low molecular weight subunits. Generally, glutenin exhibits a molecular weight exceeding one million daltons. Preferred fractionated wheat protein products comprise at least about 85% by weight protein, and more preferably at least about 90% by weight for gliadin and about 75% by weight protein, and more preferably at least about 80% by weight for glutenin, all proteins expressed on N×6.25, dry basis.  
         [0023]     Deamidated wheat protein products may be manufactured according to a number of techniques. One such technique is to treat wheat gluten with low concentrations of hydrochloric acid at elevated temperatures to deamidate or convert glutamine and asparagine amino acid residues in the protein into glutamic and aspartic acid, respectively. Other techniques include treating wheat gluten with an alkaline solution or with enzymes such as transglutaminase. This modification causes a shift in the isoelectric point of the protein from about neutral pH to about pH 4. This signifies that the deamidated wheat protein product is least soluble at pH 4, but is soluble at neutral pH. Deamidated wheat protein products preferably comprise at least about 75% by weight protein, and more preferably at least about 83% by weight (N×6.25, dry basis). An example of a deamidated wheat protein product for use with the present invention is WPI 2100 available from MGP Ingredients.  
         [0024]     Hydrolyzed wheat protein products are manufactured by reacting an aqueous dispersion of wheat gluten with food-grade proteases having endo- and/or exo-activities to hydrolyze the proteins into a mixture of low-molecular weight peptides and polypeptides. The hydrolyzed mixture is then dried. Hydrolyzed wheat protein products generally exhibit a water solubility of at least about 50%. Hydrolyzed wheat protein products preferably have protein contents of at least about 70% by weight, more preferably at least about 82% by weight (on an 6.25×N, dry basis). Examples of hydrolyzed wheat protein products for use in the present invention include HWG 2009, FP 1000, and FP 1000 Isolate, all available from MGP Ingredients.  
         [0025]     Preferably, high-protein bakery products according to the invention comprise from about 1-150 baker&#39;s percent of the first proteinaceous ingredient, more preferably from about 5-60 baker&#39;s percent. Preferred first proteinaceous ingredients comprise at least about 70% by weight protein and more preferably at least 82% by weight protein (6.25×N, dry basis). Exemplary preferred first proteinaceous ingredients include vital wheat gluten, soy protein concentrate, soy protein isolate, whey protein, sodium caseinate, nonfat dry milk, dried egg whites, wheat protein isolate, wheat protein concentrate, devitalized wheat gluten, fractionated wheat protein, deamidated wheat gluten, hydrolyzed wheat protein, and mixtures thereof.  
         [0026]     Bakery products according to the present invention may be chemically leavened or yeast leavened. Preferred chemical leavening agents include sodium bicarbonate, monocalcium phosphate, sodium aluminum phosphate, sodium aluminum sulfate, sodium acid pyrophosphate, dicalcium phosphate, potassium acid tartrate, and glucono-delta-lactone.  
         [0027]     Preferred yeast-leavened bakery products and dough have a total protein content from about 5-35% by weight, and more preferably from about 20-28% by weight. Preferred chemically leavened bakery products and dough have a total protein content from about 4-18% by weight, more preferably from about 6-12% by weight.  
         [0028]     Preferably, bakery products made in accordance with the present invention comprise an amount of resistant starch. The resistant starch may be used in place of at least a portion of the flour which comprises traditional bakery products, thereby effectively reducing the “net” carbohydrate total of the bakery product. As explained in further detail below, resistant starch is generally not digestible thereby exhibiting characteristics which are similar to those of dietary fiber.  
         [0029]     In 1987 Englyst and Cummings at the MRC Dunn Clinical Nutrition Center in Cambridge, UK, proposed a classification of starch based on its likely digestive properties in vivo. They also devised in vitro assay methods to mimic the various digestive properties of starch. Three classes of dietary starch were proposed:  
         [0030]     (1) Rapidly Digestible Starch (RDS). RDS is likely to be rapidly digested in the human small intestine; examples include freshly cooked rice and potato, and some instant breakfast cereals.  
         [0031]     (2) Slowly Digestible Starch (SDS). SDS is likely to be slowly yet completely digested in the small intestine; examples include raw cereal starch and cooked pasta.  
         [0032]     (3) Resistant Starch (RS). RS is likely to resist digestion in the small intestine. RS is thus defined as the sum of starch and starch degradation products not likely to be absorbed in the small intestine of healthy individuals. RS can be subdivided into four categories depending on the cause of resistance (Englyst et al., Eur. J. Clin. Nutr. 46(suppl 2):S33, 1992; Eerlingen et al., Cereal Chem. 70:339, 1993).  
         [0033]     RS 1 . Physically inaccessible starch due to entrapment of granules within a protein matrix or within a plant cell wall, such as in partially milled grain or legumes after cooling.  
         [0034]     RS 2 . Raw starch granules, such as those from potato or green banana, that resist digestion by alpha-amylase, possibly because those granules lack micropores through their surface.  
         [0035]     RS 3 . Retrograded amylose formed by heat/moisture treatment of starch or starch foods, such as occurs in cooked/cooled potato and corn flake.  
         [0036]     RS 4 . Chemically modified starches, such as acetylated, hydroxypropylated, or cross-linked starches that resist digestion by alpha-amylase. Those modified starches would be detected by the in vitro assay of RS. However, some RS 4  may not be fermented in the colon.  
         [0037]     RS 1 , RS 2 , RS 3  are physically modified forms of starch and become accessible to alpha-amylase digestion upon solubilization in sodium hydroxide or dimethyl sulfoxide. RS 4  that is chemically substituted remains resistant to alpha-amylase digestion even if dissolved. RS 4  produced by cross-linking would resist dissolution.  
         [0038]     Highly cross-linked wheat starches belonging to RS 4  category may be manufactured by processes disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,855,946 and U.S. Pat. No. 6,299,907. Typical total dietary fiber content (AOAC Method 991.43) of these RS 4  products can range from 10% to greater than 70%. Examples of preferred RS 4  products for use with the present invention are the FiberStar series, for example FiberStar 70, available from MGP Ingredients.  
         [0039]     Preferred products according to the present invention comprise from about 5-120 baker&#39;s percent of a resistant starch, and more preferably from about 20-90 baker&#39;s percent.  
         [0040]     Table 1 summarizes broad and preferred ranges of the various second proteinaceous ingredients for use in products according to the present invention. The various weight percentages listed are on a flour weight basis (or baker&#39;s percent).  
                       TABLE 1                       Second proteinaceous ingredient   Broad range   Preferred range                   Wheat protein isolate product   0.5-100%     5-50%       Wheat protein concentrate product   0.5-100%     5-50%       Devitalized wheat gluten product   0.5-100%     5-25%       Fractionated wheat protein product   0.5-20%   0.5-5%       Deamidated wheat gluten product   0.5-20%   0.5-5%       Hydrolyzed wheat protein product   0.5-30%   0.5-5%                  
 
         [0041]     Preferred products made in accordance with the invention exhibit several nutritional and functional benefits. The products are a good source of nutrition due to their elevated protein content and because of a reduced total caloric contribution from carbohydrates. The various protein sources provide a good complement of amino acids. In addition to being an excellent source of fiber (attributable to the presence of resistant starch), the products exhibit a low glycemic index. As stated previously, the inventive formulation improves dough handling and machinability, decreases dough buckiness, and improves product flavor. 
     
    
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT  
       [0042]     The following examples set forth preferred products in accordance with the present invention. It is to be understood, however, that these examples are provided by way of illustration and nothing therein should be taken as a limitation upon the overall scope of the invention.  
         [0043]     For Examples 1-11, the following mixing and baking procedures were used. All dry ingredients were blended together until thoroughly incorporated. All liquid ingredients were added and the dough mixed for one minute on low speed using a Hobart A200 mixer (Hobart Corp.) With a spiral dough hook, and then mixed for 2-2.5 minutes on high speed. The mixing was relatively minimal to prevent excessive development and excessively tough and rubbery bread. The dough scaling weight followed a pan factor of 2.00-2.05. The dough scaling weight (in ounces) was determined by dividing the area (in square inches) of the top of the bread pan by the pan factor. The dough was proofed at 110° F. with a relative humidity of 85%. The dough was baked at 390° F. for 37-42 minutes.

         [0056]     In this Example 12, all dry ingredients were blended together until completely uniform. Liquid ingredients were added next and mixed for 1 minute on low and 5.5 minutes on high speed using Hobart mixer (Hobart Corp.) equipped with a spiral dough hook. Dough scaling weight followed a pan factor of 2.05. The dough weight was determined by dividing the area (in square inches) of the top of the bread pan by 2.05. The dough was proofed at 110° F. and 85% relative humidity, and then baked at 400° F. for 25 minutes.

         [0060]     This French Cruller doughnut is an example of a chemically leavened, fried product according to the invention. All ingredients (except the water and eggs) were mixed until uniform. Hot water (125-130° F.) was added and the batter mixed on low speed for 30 seconds. The mixer speed was increased to medium and the batter mixed an additional two minutes, at which time the eggs were added and the batter mixed on low speed for one minute. The batter was mixed an additional three minutes on medium speed. The temperature of the batter was between 85-90° F. The doughnuts were fried for 2¾ minutes on the first side, then turned and fried for three minutes on the second side, and finally turned again and fried for 15 seconds.

         [0062]     In the chocolate cake donut formula (a chemically-leavened, fried product according to the invention), the emulsifier and sugar were creamed together. All dry ingredients were then incorporated to the creamed sugar mixture for 10 minutes at speed 2 in a Kitchen Aid mixer (Hobart Corp.) equipped with a paddle. Water at 81° F. was added and mixed for one minute at speed 1 and at speed 2 for one minute and 35 seconds. The quantity of water ranged from 46-48% of the dry mix weight. The batter temperature was between 76-78° F. The batter was rested for 6 minutes at room temperature, and then fried for one minute each side.

         [0064]     This blueberry muffin mix is an example of a chemically-leavened, baked product according to the present invention. The sugar, salt, and shortening were blended together until uniform. The remaining ingredients (except for the eggs and water) were added and mixed until uniform. The eggs were added along with half of the water and the batter was mixed in a mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes. Then, the remaining water was added and the batter mixed on low speed for an additional 2 minutes. The blueberries were gently folded into the batter which was then poured into muffin cups. Baking time and temperature will largely depend upon muffin size, however, generally, a 75 gram muffin will be baked at 400° F. for 20 minutes.

         [0084]     The sponge ingredients were first mixed for one minute on low speed, and then mixed for an additional minute on high speed. The sponge was then allowed 3 hours of fermentation time. In preparation of the dough, all of the dough ingredients were added to the sponge and mixed for one minute at low speed followed by one minute of mixing at high speed. The dough was allowed 5 minutes of floor time, and then the dough was scaled to the desired weight. The dough was proofed for 45 minutes at a temperature between 106′-110° F. The dough was baked at 390° F., with steam, for 36 minutes.

         [0086]     All dry ingredients were mixed together and the water was added. The dough was mixed for one minute at low speed and 9½ minutes at medium speed in a Hobart mixer (Hobart Corp.) equipped with a dough hook. The dough was allowed to rest for one hour at room temperature. The dough was divided into pieces and allowed to rest for 15-20 minutes at room temperature. Dough pieces were rolled out and cut to desired weight with a donut cutter. The dough was proofed at 95-115° F. for 25-35 minutes. The donuts were fried at 375° F. for 45-60 seconds each side.

         [0088]     In this Example 28, the dry ingredients were mixed for 2 minutes at low speed in a Hobart mixer (Hobart Corp.) equipped with a paddle. Then, the shortening was added and mixed for another 6 minutes at low speed. Water at 95° F. was added and mixed using a hook attachment for 1 minute at low speed and 4 minutes at medium speed. The dough was rested for 5 minutes in a proofing cabinet at 92-95° F. and 70% relative humidity. After 5 minutes, dough balls were formed using a divider/rounder. The dough balls were rested again in the proofing cabinet (92-95° F. and 70% relative humidity) for 10 minutes. Then, a hot press was used to press the dough balls into disks. The top and bottom platens of the hot press were set at 743° F. with a dwell time of 1.35 seconds and pressure of 1100 psi. The disks were baked in a three-tier oven (350-360° F.) for 30 seconds. The tortillas were then allowed to cool for 1.5 minutes, and placed inside a low-density polyethylene bag.
