Abstract

Fermented maize residue, a by-product of the production of fermented starch, a local weaning food and breakfast cereal for adults in Nigeria and West Africa was dried, milled into flour and utilized as a fibre source in cookies production at 0 – 30% levels of substitution.  The effects of the addition of the fermented maize residue on the physical, sensory and nutritional properties on the cookie sample were investigated.  Results showed spread ratio values decreased with residue flour addition, ash content and protein content and carbohydrate also showed a decrease.  The crude fibre content increased with levels of replacement.  The result of sensory evaluation showed equal preference among the samples.  Invitro-protein digestibility showed a decrease with fermented maize residue addition. Addition of fermented maize residue to cookie production can be a viable way of utilizing the fibre rich fermented maize residue
