Abstract

In this study, apricot pulp samples dried by hot air, microwave and microwave-hot air combination methods were ground into powder. By analyzing certain parameters of the obtained apricot pulp powder samples (total phenolic content, antioxidant capacity and color values), the apricot pulp powder obtained by the drying method (300 W-60ºC) determined by prioritizing the functional properties in yogurt and bread production, was used in 5 different ratios (10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%).
