Traditional cereal based porridges have an important role to play in the fight against food insecurity. However, the cereal based porridges are high in energy and are usually deficient in some essential amino acids as well as micronutrients. The objective of the study was to optimise blending ratios of porridges formulated from pearl millet, cowpeas, wild loquat and velvet wild medlar fruit powders to improve the nutritional composition. Twelve formulations of the composite flours were determined using D-optimal mixture design. The ingredients were considered in the ranges of 58 %–66 %, 20 %–30 %, 8 %–15 % for pearl millet flour, cowpeas flour, and fruit powders, respectively. The porridges were analysed for nutritional composition, functional properties, anti-nutritional factors, and sensory acceptability. The results showed significant difference (P |
