摘要

The invention relates to a cereal-based bar composition of the chewy type, comprising a cereal part and a binder part, wherein the binder part comprises a vital wheat gluten composition. The invention furthermore relates to a method for preparing a cereal-based bar composition of the chewy type, wherein the cereal- based bar composition comprises a cereal part and a binder part, wherein in order to produce cereal-based bar composition according to any one of the preceding claims, the method comprises the steps of dry mixing a cereal part and a vital wheat gluten composition forming part of the binder part; adding a plasticizer composition forming part of the binder part to the dry mixture and mixing sufficiently in order to distribute the plasticizer composition homogeneously; shaping and cold pressing the homogenised mass, and - conditioning the shaped and pressed mass, until a stable cereal-based bar composition structure is obtained.
