Resumo

The objective of this study was the application of green coffee bean flour in gluten-free cakes with different percentages (4, 8 and 15% (w/w)), to evaluate the optimal value for fortification, and the products were characterized based on their centesimal composition and bioactive compounds (caffeine and total phenolic compounds). Significant differences (p <= 0.05) were observed in the content of lipids, total dietary fiber, insoluble fiber, energy values, sodium, caffeine, and total phenolics, mainly in the product in which 15% (w/w) green coffee bean flour was added. Caffeine content was only detected and quantified in products with > 8% (w/w) green coffee bean flour, whereas the total phenolic content was detected and quantified in products with > 4% (w/w) green coffee bean flour. Thus, fortification of these products with 15% green coffee bean flour promoted a higher content of total dietary fiber and lower content of lipids, calories, sodium, and increased bioactive compounds. Thus, green coffee bean flour is an excellent alternative for the production of innovative foods. (AU)
