Arka Jackies is a jackfruit seed powder and mushroom based cookies, developed by ICAR-IIHR, Bengaluru. Conventionally, defatted cereal brans are used for enhancing the fibre content of biscuits. In the technology developed at ICAR-IIHR, an healthier substitute than the cereal bran is used, i.e., blanched jackfruit seed powder. The jackfruit seed powder besides having around 2.0% crude fibre also has high amount of minerals and phytochemicals. Unlike cereal bran fortified biscuits, where only 5-10% refined wheat flour is replaced, in our technology upto 40% of refined wheat flour was replaced with blanched jackfruit seed powder, fruit powder and mushroom with very good sensory acceptability. It is rich in minerals like calcium, magnesium and iron.
