Abstract :
Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) is a hardy
cereal crop that has gained attention for its nutritional
value and gluten-free properties. In recent years, there has
been a growing interest in exploring alternative
ingredients to enhance the nutritional profile and sensory
attributes of baked goods. This study aims to investigate
the incorporation of orange peel powder into pearl millet
cookies, evaluating its impact on both nutritional content
and sensory quality. Inthis project we prepared 1 control
which is 100% of pearl millet flour, and 3 treatments,
treatment 1(T1) 90% pearl millet flour and 5% orange
peel powder and mix of Flax seeds, Pumpkin seeds and
Fenugreek seeds powder 5%, (T2) has 80% pearl millet
flour and 10% orange peel powder and mix of Flax seeds,
Pumpkin seeds and Fenugreek seeds powder 10%,(T3
)has 70% Pearl millet flour and 15% orange peel powder
and mix of Flax seeds, Pumpkinseeds and Fenugreek
seeds powder 15% the completion of preparing of cookie
we did a sensory evaluation of cookies based on the
appearance, colour, flavour, texture, taste, and overall
acceptability of cookies, after that we packed the cookiesin
LDPE zip lock covers whichcan be stored upto 3 months.
And remaining like materials and methods, procedure,
results,and discussed below in this article. This research
highlights the potential of pearl millet cookies
incorporated with orange peel powder as a suitable snack
option for diabetic patients. By incorporating natural
ingredients and controlling the glycemic load, these
cookies offer a healthier alternative to traditional high-
glycemic snacks. The findings suggest that suchcookies
can be included in a diabetic diet to provide a satisfying
and enjoyable treat while maintaining blood glucose
levels. Future studies may focus on long-term glycemic
control andinvestigating the effects of these cookies on
other markers of diabetic health.
