ResumoMango mesocarp flour was incorporated into wheat flour at 15, 20 and 30% levels to evaluate its micronutrients contribution and effect on the physical and organoleptic attributes of wheat-based bread. A control (100% wheat flour) was used for comparison. Proteins in wheat, mango and composite flours were found to be 12%, 3% and 10–11%, respectively. Wheat flour had 5mg/100g β-carotene and 6mg/100g ascorbic acid whereas mango flour had 231mg/100g and 56mg/100g β-carotene and ascorbic acid, respectively. The composite flour samples had range values 32-64mg/100g β-carotene and 9–18mg/100g ascorbic acid contents. Water absorption capacity of the composite flour samples slightly decreased from 2 to 1gH20/g sample, with increased level of mango flour substitution. However, a slight increase in oil absorption capacity from 1–2g oil/g sample was recorded. Bread loaves from the composite flour samples had 11–12% protein, 1–2% fat, 1–2% ash, 1–2% fibre, 29-61mg/100g β-carotene and 8–17mg/100g ascorbic acid. There was significant difference (p
