A process for the production of the granular food product by preparing a premix of powdered constituents of the filler and fat, forming the premix into granules or agglomerates by atomizing an aqueous solution of binding agent onto a fluidized bed of the premix to incorporate an amount of binding agent and drying the granules to the desired residual moisture content. The resultant free flowing granular food product comprises a swelling powdered food material having a relatively large mean diameter and a relatively narrow span in diameter distribution so that the granular food product is dispersible by simply pouring it into a hot liquid.
