The evaluation of the quality and contents of nutritionally important chemical components in wheat bread fortified with teff flour and chia seed was shown. In the work, the quality was determined by means of the volume, total baking loss and yield and also by performing organoleptic evaluation. Moreover, the staling process in bread was also investigated. The research covers wheat bread (standard) and bread supplemented with 5, 10 and 15% of teff flour as well as bread with 5 and 10% of chia seed. It was found that the addition of teff flour or chia seeds significantly influenced all the quality characteristics. In the organoleptic evaluation, all the bread obtained was of the best quality. Moreover, in both teff flour and chia seed fortified bread it was established that they contained a higher content of protein, fat, ash and dietary fibre compared to pure wheat products. Therefore, the described fortifying raw materials can be considered a wholesome raw material in bakery production.
