Abstract
Abstract This study investigates the quality characteristics of muffins prepared with various concentrations of akebia leaves powder. Muffins are prepared by additions of 0%, 2%, 4%, 6% and 8% powder to the flour for basic formulation. Heights decrease significantly when the amount of Akebia leaves powder increases. When the weight is being measured, there are no meaningful differences between the samples. As a result from measuring the colors, the lightness, redness and yellowness of muffins decrease as the concentrations of the powder increase. When measuring the texture of akebia leaves muffins, the hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness decrease, but the springiness and adhesiveness increase as the concentrations of Akebia leaves powder increase. When the sensual qualities of the muffins are measured, the color, sweetness, softness and overall quality of all of the samples have shown significant differences, and the muffins containing 4% of Akebia leaves powder reveal the highest sensual quality indexes.Key words: Akebia quinata leaves, muffins, quality characteristics
