The protein content of fortified biscuits ranged
from 6.99% to 10.61% higher than the control with
6.81% protein content. The significant increase in
protein content may be due to the addition of soya
flour and pea flour in the product as both are rich in
proteins. One of the studies carried out by Ugwuona
(2009) showed protein and fat content of biscuits
increased with increasing soy fortifications.
