The invention relates to toasted full fat, enzyme active soybean flakes,
and method of making same. The inventive flakes are excellent for use in
hot and cold cereal compositions including with rolled oats, in soybean
flakes-potato flakes compositions for making soy protein enriched mashed
potato products, in granola and power bar type compositions, in
shake-and-bake type compositions, and in meat analogue veggie-burger type
compositions. The inventive toasted full fat, enzyme active soybean
flakes are prepared by subjecting full fat, enzyme active soybean flakes
made from dehulled soybeans to relatively high heat from dry heated air
for a relatively short time while moving on and/or above a moving or
vibrating surface. The invention further relates to use of the inventive
toasted soybean flakes in soybean flakes-potato flakes compositions, and
said compositions per se. The invention also relates to use of the
inventive toasted soybean flakes in cereal compositions containing
toasted flakes and rolled oats, shake and bake type compositions, granola
and power bar type compositions, hot beverage type compositions similar
to malted milk type mixes, and meat analogue veggie-burger type
compositions. The invention also includes these compositions, per se.
