Abstract: The present study entitled “Impact of malting on nutrient and antinutrient content of processed and unprocessed composite flour prepared with different grains” was carried out with objectives to assess the impact of malting on nutrients, and antinutrients to developed processed composite flour. The different types of composite flours were prepared. Processed composite flour was obtained by the mixing of malted wheat flour (MWF), malted pearl millet flour (MPMF), malted soybean flour (MSF), malted chickpea flour (MCF)and dehydrated colocasia leaves powder (DCLP) in the different ratios i.e (MWF-40%,MPMF-20%,MCF-20%,MSF-10%, DCLP 10%) and unprocessed composite flour was prepared (WF-50%,PMF-20%,CF-20%,SF-10%,) Chemical analysis was done by standardized procedure of (AOAC 2007). Comparison of nutrient and antinutrient content of processed and unprocessed composite flour was showed that there was a maximum increase in nutrient content of malted processed composite flour.
