Abstract

Sucrose-free or -reduced cookies having the crispy texture associated with conventional sucrose-containing doughs can be prepared by replacing part or all of the sucrose with a combination of a glass-forming polysaccharide (preferably a maltodextrin) and a humectant sugar (preferably fructose). Multi-textured cookied can be prepared using the combination of glass-forming polysaccharide and humectant sugar in the crispy outer layer, and a humectant sugar as the sweetening agent in the soft, chewy center.
