Production of the probiotic dessert containing sprouted quinoa milk and evaluation of physicochemical and microbial properties during storage

One of the challenges of the food industry is detecting the potential of novel non-dairy food matrices to deliver probiotic bacteria to humans as cholesterol-free products, suitable for people with lactose intolerance and sensitivity to dairy proteins. In this study, the possibility of adding sprouted quinoa milk (SQM) at 0%, 50%, and 100% levels in probiotic non-dairy dessert containing native isolated from camel milk was investigated. Physicochemical, functional, microbiological, color, texture, and organoleptic characteristics of probiotic dessert samples were evaluated during 1, 7, and 14 days of storage at 4°C. According to the results, fat, protein, carbohydrates, and ash increased significantly during germination (
