Abstract

Cookies are traditionally made using wheat flour, but arrowroot flour-based cookies augmented with almond flour offer a nutritious alternative. Almond flour enhances the flavor and significantly improves the nutritional profile, increasing the protein and unsaturated fat content, which is particularly advantageous for breastfeeding mothers to increase milk production. Thus, this study aims to evaluate to consumer acceptance, nutritional value, and total energy content of arrowroot flour-based cookies with varying proportions of almond flour. A completely randomized design (CRD) with single factor-the percentage of almond flour substitutions was employed. Consumer preferences identified the optimal formulation as 55% arrowroot flour and 45% almond flour. Chemical analysis of this optimal formulation revealed the following composition: 3.05% moisture, 1.87% ash, 7.97% protein, 36.58% fat, and 50.53% carbohydrates, with the amount of energy for one serving size is 25.4 kcal/5 g. these results illustrate that incorporating almond flour into arrowroot flour-based cookies not only enhances their nutritional profile but also positions them as a favorable alternative to conventional wheat-based cookies.
