The purpose of the work is the scientific substantiation and development of the optimal recipe and technology for the production of a dry powder mixture for muffins using functional ingredients to better meet the needs of consumers in the range and quality of flour confectionery products. Standard methods of analysis were used for research. The quality of finished food products was controlled by physicochemical parameters and calculation of nutritional value. The results of experimental studies were subjected to statistical processing using standard Microsoft Office software packages. The relevance of creating and improving the technology of dry mixes for the production of low-calorie muffins with functional ingredients is substantiated in the work. This will allow to embrace a bigger market segment of consumers. Recipes for muffins based on a dry mixture were developed and a number of physico-chemical quality indicators were determined, nutritional and energy values were calculated. It has been established that the use of carob and sweetener in muffin recipes has a significant effect on the properties of the dough and its quality, especially on density and moisture. With a 10 % share of carob in the dry mixture, the moisture content of the finished dough decreases by 4.7 % relative to the control, and in the sample with 15 % of carob, it increases by 0.29 %. The density of the dough prepared on the basis of a dry mixture with the addition of 10...15 % carob increases compared to the control (1.108 g/cm3) by 0.276...0294 g/cm3. Ready-made muffins made on the basis of a dry mixture with carob and sweetener have a 4.7–9.5 % higher flow-up index compared to the control sample. It was determined that under the conditions of 10 and 15 % dosage of carob in the dry mix, the moisture content of finished products increases by 2.53...6.56 % compared to the control sample with sugar and cocoa. In the samples of muffins prepared on the basis of a dry mixture with carob and sweetener, an increase in wettability was noted – 129.8...135.38 % against 122.8 % in the control, and porosity – 53.85...59.4 % against 45.8 %, respectively. Ready-made muffins prepared on the basis of a dry mixture with carob and sweetener have an energy value lower than the control sample by 18.7...19.6 %. Implementation of the proposed technology will allow to expand the assortment of flour confectionery products with increased biological value to enable producer provide sufficient impact upon final consumer.
