A extrusion method is used to obtained leavened dough products with desirable characteristics. A chemical leavener is used to release carbon dioxide within the extruder and/or a premixer to yield an expanded dough following the extrusion process. In some embodiments, improved dough products are produced. The improved dough products following frying have improved freeze/thaw cycling performance and can be microwave cooked to yield a tender dough with desirable characteristics. The improved dough can be described by the degree of expansion and its cooking properties.
