Abstract
In daily consumption people likes to eat
Crackers at morning snakes or an evening snakes. Consumer demand to eat healthy
and nutritious food that’s why we use health incorporating natural ingredients.

calcium, Moringa oliefera Leaves Powder rich source of Calcium. The
formulation of Ragi incorporated with Moringa oliefera Leaves Powder
Crackers were made by varying levels of ingredients by 3 trials T1, T2 and T3.
Among the trials T3 was selected by highest score with following proportion of
Finger Millets, Moringa oliefera Leaves Powder and other ingredients as
30:10:50. The Process for Ragi incorporated with Moringa oliefera Leaves
Powder Crackers begins by grinding Finger millet and Moringa oliefera Leaves
Powder. After roasting Finger Millets are grinded and Moringa oliefera Leaves
dried in dries and make a powder by using grinder than all the flour mixed by
adding salt and required spices. After mixing dough was prepared and rolled
into thin sheet by cutting with molder and baked at 1500c for 20
min. Proximate composition of Ragi incorporated with Moringa oliefera Leaves
Powder Crackers were sample T3, Carbohydrate is 64.67gm, the protein content is
9.96g, The Ash content 2.09g, fat content 14.79g. Energy values was found to be
431.63 Kcal as the moisture content is 8.49g, the total sugar is 18.86g
respectively. Sample T3 best among all the levels Incorporated Moringa
oliefera Leaves Powder Crackers prepared recorded highest score in all the
quality attributes with highest source of protein, Calcium and other micro
nutrients. It was concluded that the Incorporated Moringa oliefera Leaves
Powder Crackers can be stored in HDPE for 2 months at room temperature. So the
Incorporated Moringa oliefera Leaves powder Crackers can be satisfy the
