PREPARATION AND ANALYSIS OF ABC BISCUITS

The goal of this research was to develop a wholesome biscuit incorporating apple, beetroot, and carrot, referred to as the "ABC Biscuit." This innovative snack combined the natural sweetness of apples, the earthy flavor of beetroot, and the crunch of carrots, offering a unique taste experience. Notably, the ABC Biscuit was made entirely from natural ingredients, free from artificial preservatives, flavors, and colors. rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, the ABC Biscuit presented an excellent option for health-conscious consumers. The beetroot content provided a boost of antioxidants and nitrates, which could help lower blood pressure and improve cardiovascular health. Meanwhile, the apple and carrot ingredients offered a good source of dietary fiber, promoting digestive health and satiety. This work involved testing both the nutritional value and shelf life of the ABC Biscuit. A proximate analysis was conducted to determine its moisture content, protein, fat, fiber, and ash content. The shelf life was evaluated by monitoring the biscuit's texture, flavor, and microbial growth over time. The results of this study provided valuable insights into the biscuit's nutritional benefits and shelf life, underscoring its potential as a healthy, natural snack option.
