  • Publication number: 20060177556
    Abstract: Unproofed, frozen, non-yeast dough products are disclosed which upon exposure to microwave energy have characteristics similar to fresh-baked bakery products. A method is provided to make such bakery products without an intervening thawing or proofing step. The frozen dough product is made without multiple leaveners from flour, water, fat, and a protein-starch mixture comprising from about 0.01 baker's % to about 5 baker's % of protein and from about 0.01 baker's % to about 5 baker's % of starch. The starch is preferably a mixture of two starches, one absorbing moisture at ambient mixing temperature and one not absorbing moisture at ambient mixing temperature but having a low bake out temperature. The protein-starch mixture stabilizes moisture migration during microwave cooking.
