Three variations of muffins were developed and under each formulation, three different level of incorporations were made and compared to a control muffin. The developed muffins were evaluated for their sensory acceptability and the most preferred F2 formulation was selected and evaluated for proximate composition and shelf life. Developed nutritive muffins had been highly accepted in all attributes, is nutrient-dense, innovative and healthier snack but low shelf-life due to non-addition of any artificial preservative. https://www.biotech-asia.org/vol20no3/nutritional-and-shelf-life-estimation-of-nutritive-muffins-incorporating-dillenia-indica-and-terminalia-chebula-flour/ Elephant Apple; Haritaki; Minor; NE India; Shelf-Life
