Protein hydrolysates (PH) with a degree of hydrolysis (DH) of 5%, 10%, and 13% from two varieties of peanut were prepared using two commercial enzymes, Alcalase and Flavourzyme. The content of essential amino acids (30,290 mg/100 g) and hydrophobic amino acids (34,067 mg/100 g) of the peanut variety Kalasin 2 (KAC431) protein was higher than that of a common variety, Kalasin 1 (KAC1) (p p < 0.05). The incorporation of PH with a small DH, especially when produced using Flavourzyme, had a highly positive impact on the specific volume and relative elasticity of gluten-free bread. The effect of PHs on bread quality was highly correlated with their functional properties. This study suggests that partially enzymatically modified proteins are suitable for incorporation in food products such as bread and other gluten-free products.
