This study aimed to verify the sensory acceptability of coconut cookie enriched with fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and determine the physical-chemical composition of the traditional formulation and with the highest level of FOS and similar sensory acceptance. Were used six formulations of cookies: F1 (standard) and the others added 10% (F2), 12.5% (F3), 15% (F4), 17.5% (F5) and 20% (F6) FOS. Sensorially, F1, F2, F3 and F4 showed good acceptance, with no statistical difference between them, in all attributes. In physico-chemical composition F4 showed higher fiber concentration, carbohydrates and calories and lower moisture (p<0.05) than F1. Thus, the products development has demonstrated that an addition level of 15% FOS in coconut cookies was better accepted by the judges, obtaining sensory acceptance similar to standard product and good expectations of sales.
