Incorporation of Green Banana Flour (BF) into Chinese steamed bread (CSB) may be a
strategy to fortify the traditional CSB due to its health benefits. However, BF-incorporated
foods in general, have poorer sensory properties affecting consumer acceptability. The aim
of this study was to examine the adjustment of water content from the original formulation
and addition of coffee flavour on physical properties and consumer acceptability of BFincorporated
CSB. Wheat flour as control was substituted with 15% BF varied by addition
of 30% water and coffee flavour. Physical analysis (colour, volume, spread ratio and
texture) of CSB and hedonic test for appearance, aroma, flavour, overall acceptability and
preference ranking of CSB were conducted. Results showed no significant differences
(p>0.05) in specific volume, springiness, and adhesiveness among samples. A significant
increase (p
