This study tries to fill the information gap on the effect of tef varieties on physico-chemical,nutritional and sensorial quality of gluten-free bread. Maize starch replacement at 50, 75 and100 g/100 g level by tef flour from three Ethiopian varieties (DZ-Cr-37, DZ-Cr-387 and DZ-01-99)resulted in viable gluten-free breads with acceptable sensory properties, higher mineral content andlower glycemic response. Tef cultivar type and blending level significantly affected bread quality.The 50% and 75% substitution levels and the DZ-Cr-37 variety led to the highest bread volumes withthe lowest firmness. Breads made with DZ-01-99 variety were darker and with more reddish crustand crumb hues than those made with the other varieties. Breads from 100% DZ-Cr-37 achieved thehighest hedonic scores for color, odor, taste and texture. The Ca, Fe and Mg contents of the breadsmade with 100% tef were 13, 40 and 30 times, respectively, higher than those of the control bread(100% maize starch), indicating tef could be used as an excellent source of these important minerals.In addition, the rapidly digestible starch content decreased up to 28% in breads fortified with tef flour.
