Abstract

The objective of this study was to improve nutritive value ot sassava cracker by substituting 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25% (w/w) of cassava flour with low fat glandless cottonseed flour (GCSF). The result showed that bulk density of cassava cracker fortified with 5-25% were higher but their thickness expansion were less than control cracker. The substitation of 10% GCSF in the mixture of cassava cracker was accepted by the panelists which average acceptability score was 4.0 (like very much). Protein and fat contents of 5-25% GCSF-cassava cracker ranged from 3.69-11.145 and 1.11-3.54%, respectively, compared to those of control cracker which were 1.895 and 2.14% respectively.
