Abstract: In a method of preparing a dough composition, a batter comprising water, a leavening agent, and flour is formed. After the batter is formed, a complementary leavening agent, additional flour and other minor ingredients are added to the batter and mixed to form a dough wherein the leavening agents are distributed uniformly through the dough and the dough results in a higher specific volume upon baking. A dough composition is also formulated from a batter, wherein the batter comprises water, a leavening agent and flour. After the batter is formed, a complementary leavening agent, additional flour, and any minor ingredients are added to the batter and mixed to form a dough. Alternatively, the complementary leavening agent can be added in an unreactive form to the batter as long as it does not react with the other leavening agent until the dough is formed. The dough comprises from about 30 wt-% to about 60 wt-% flour, from about 20 wt-% to about 40 wt-% water; from about 0.1 wt-% to about 2.

Abstract: A method of preparing a dough composition. According to the method, a first batter comprising water and a leavening acid is formed. A second batter comprising water and a leavening base is also formed. After each batter is formed separately, the first and second batters are combined to formulate a dough wherein said dough proofs rapidly and provides a higher specific volume upon baking. A dough composition is formulated from two separate batters, a first batter comprising water and a leavening acid, and a second batter comprising water and a leavening base. When the two batters are combined, with flour, the resulting dough comprises from about 30 wt-% to about 60 wt-% flour; from about 20 wt-% to about 40 wt-% water; from about 0.1 wt-% to about 2.0 wt-% leavening acid; from about 0.1 wt-% to about 2.0 wt-% leavening acid. The dough proofs rapidly and, once baked, provides a specific volume ranging from about 2 cc/g to 5 cc/g.
