Abstract
Reduced calorie crackers produced from dough compositions are disclosed which contain 25-70 percent of flour, 0-20 percent of gluten, 0-10 percent fat or shortening, 5-20 percent of a water-soluble polydextrose, 0-5 percent of one or more emulsifiers, 0.5-5 percent of a leavening system comprising yeast and a carbon dioxide-releasing material, and 1.5-10 percent of a cellulosic bulking agent, all percentage being by weight based upon the total weight of the dough, and the total amount of fat, shortening and emulsifier being 3-10 percent weight of the dough. The crackers may be produced either by a one-stage process in which all the ingredients are mixed together prior to fermentation, or by a two-stage process using a sponge stage followed by a dough-up stage. The crackers are desirably produced, in the one-stage process, using a single, rather than a multiple, lamination technique.
