Acceptability was measured from the level of preference including color, aroma, taste and texture of hardness and crispness using a hedonic scale. Data analysis was carried out using a diversity test and Duncan’s advanced test. The results of the organoleptic test by the panelists showed that the most preferred Formula was Formula 2, namely with the addition of 30% lokapere flour, with the results of the P2 color assessment that the panelists preferred most was pale brown, the most preferred F2 aroma was slightly banana-scented, the most preferred F2 taste was sweet and quite banana-like, and the most preferred F2 texture was based on crispness and hardness.
