Flat breads are staple food and main source of carbohydrate in Iranian food cart. So to increase the nutritional value of bread and decrease its waste we can utilize proper mixing of wheat flour with white bean flour. Flour of white beans is rich source of protein, carbohydrates, minerals and some essential amino acids such as lysine that it could be used as a nutritional supplement. In the present study, the addition effects of 10, 15 and 20 percent of white bean flour on chemical and staling properties of Iranian industry and traditional Barbari breads has been studied. At first various chemical tests such moisture measurement, ash, protein, fiber, and pH was conducted on samples of wheat flour and white beans flour according to the AACC international standard with three replications. Then samples of bread traditionally and industrial has been produced and chemical tests including protein, fiber, moisture, ash and staling test were conducted with sensory method and according to AACC standard. On the other hand data statistical analysis with completely randomized design method, Duncan test and MSTATC software at the level of α≤1% was performed. Results of chemical test showed that the used flours for Iranian industry and traditional Barbari breads production is appropriate. Besides the performed chemical tests on bread samples showed that using higher levels of white bean flour increased amount of protein, fiber, moisture and ash of breads. Also in evaluation of staling with sensory method by panelists showed that, the industrial and traditional Barbari samples with 10% white bean flour were diagnosed more desirable.
