Abstract: The invention relates to a method for preparing a substantially granular food composition which contains digestible starch having a substantially granular structure, whereby said starch is provided with coagulable protein and said protein is subsequently coagulated, and the ratio of starch to protein lies between 97-60: 3-40, and to a granular food composition characterized by digestible starch that is provided with coagulated protein, and that the ratio of starch to protein lies between 97-60: 3-40. In both cases the ratio of starch to protein lies between 97-70: 3-30, preferably 90:10. The food product may have the form of filled cake, other bakery products and dish, couscous, anko, snack and the like provided with a granular food composition.
