Conventional food compositions for use in making baked goods and extruded food products are improved by reducing the carbohydrate content. This is done by substituting the conventional flour in whole or in part by a combination of starch that is resistant to amylase digestion and/or from about 1-150 baker's percent of a first proteinaceous ingredient comprising at least about 70% by weight protein, and a second proteinaceous ingredient selected from the group consisting of (i) between about 0.5-100 baker's percent of a wheat protein isolate product; (ii), between about 0.5-100 baker's percent of a wheat protein concentrate product; (iii) between about 0.5-100 baker's percent of a devitalized wheat gluten product; (iv) between about 0.5-20 baker's percent of a fractionated wheat protein product; (v) between about 0.5-20 baker's percent of a deamidated wheat gluten product; (vi) between about 0.5-30 baker's percent of a hydrolyzed wheat protein product; and (vii) any combination of ingredients (i) to (vi).
