Abstract Common beans ( Phaseolus vulgaris L.) are rich in starch with a high content of amylose, which is associated with the production of retrograded and pregelatinized starch through thermal treatments. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the composition, morphology, thermal, functional, and physicochemical properties of carbohydrate extracts (CE) obtained from autoclaved (100 and 121 °C) and extruded (90, 105, and 120 °C) black beans. After evaluation of the functional properties, the CE from autoclaved beans at 100 °C for 30 min and 121 °C for 15 min 2×, and extruded beans at 120 °C and 10 rpm, were selected to continue the remaining analysis. Autoclaving treatments at 100 °C for 30 min and 121 °C for 15 min 2× showed a reduction of resistant starch by 14.4% and 26.6%, respectively, compared to dehulled raw bean CE. Meanwhile, extrusion showed a reduction in resistant starch of 54.2%. Autoclaving and extrusion treatments also decreased the dietary fiber content. Extrusion reduced almost entirely the content of α‐galactooligosaccharides, in comparison to dehulled raw bean CE. The results showed differences in color and granule morphology. The onset, peak, and conclusion temperatures, transition temperature range, and enthalpy of autoclaved and extruded bean CE were lower than dehulled raw bean CE. The CE from autoclaved and extruded beans contain retrograded and pregelatinized starch, which could be incorporated in food products as a thickening agent for puddings, sauces, creams, or dairy products. Practical Application Thermally treated black bean carbohydrate extracts are rich in starch, fiber, and protein. Because these extracts are already cooked, they can be added to products that do not require a thermal process such as puddings, sauces, creams, or dairy products, acting as a thickening agent.
