Abstract
The feasibility of incorporating cinnamon powder as a value-added food ingredient in cookies was investigated. Density of dough was not significantly affected by cinnamon powder (P>0.05). Moisture content, spread ratio, and loss rate of cookies decreased significantly with increasing levels of cinnamon powder (P<0.05). Lightness (L*) and yellowness (b*) decreased, whereas redness (a*) as well as hardness increased significantly with higher amount of cinnamon powder (P<0.05). 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl and 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid radical scavenging activities were significantly elevated (P<0.05), and they were well-correlated. The consumer accept- ance test indicated that addition of cinnamon powder to 4% had a favorable effect on consumer preferences in all attributes. Based on overall observations, cookies with 4% cinnamon powder can take advantage of the functional properties of cinnamon powder without sacrificing consumer acceptability.
