This study explores the potential of incorporating Moringa leaf flour into steamed sponge cake recipes, which traditionally use a combination of wheat and banana flours. Moringa, a nutrient-rich superfood, offers a unique flavor profile and nutritional benefits. The research investigates the impact of varying levels of Moringa leaf flour on the cake's texture, taste, and nutritional value. Through sensory evaluations and nutritional analyses, the study seeks to provide insights into creating a healthier and more sustainable cake option, while preserving its delightful taste and texture.
