The present investigation was carried out to develop and characterize the energy bars for the sports person using different seeds viz., Flax seeds, Chia seeds, Pumpkin seeds. Bars were prepared by using multi seeds blended at various levels viz., 5, 10, 15 and 20 per cent by using finger millet as a base. Proximate parameters estimation was done to assess the nutritional profile of all the developed energy bars. The results revealed that Flaxseed blended energy bar with 15 per cent and 20 per cent composition obtained highest crude protein i.e. 12.93 & 13.28 per cent and energy 444.67 & 452.69 kcal/100g when compared to other treatments. The proximate parameters of all the energy bars varied non- significantly during the storage period up to thirty days. Therefore, Flaxseed energy bars with 15 per cent and 20 per cent composition can be recommended to the sports person to meet their nutritional requirement and as a quick source of energy.
