Development of Fiber Rich Soft Dough Biscuits Fortified with Kohila (Lasia spinosa) Flour

Currently there is a growing demand for fiber fortified food products in the world to prevent from non-communicable diseases.

Fiber Rich Soft Dough Biscuits
To develop high fiber soft dough biscuit, kohila flour was added to biscuit formulation at 10% and 15% levels (w/w), respectively. Sugar was substituted with sucralose (1 g) to obtain a low energy product.

The chemical and proximate compositions of the product (moisture, pH, protein, fat, ash, dietary fiber, carbohydrate, sodium and heavy metal, antioxidant capacity) were determined.
