Abstract	Most known cereals have been the staple food of humans but these crops are not being able to fulfill the requirements on the aspects of nutrition as well as food security. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has identified amaranth as under-utilized crop but has immense potential to upgrade health, nutrition and global hunger. Amaranth seeds are rich in energy, protein, calcium and iron and it is fast and easily grown in difficult weather and soil conditions. This study aims to formulate nutritious sweet snack (laddu) by substituting different proportions of wheat flour/Bengal gram flour with roasted and grinded amaranth seeds for vulnerable groups. Sensory analysis is done with 20 semi-trained panelists on 9 point hedonic rating scale. All the products are well accepted.
