The possibility of replacing crushed peanuts with alternative raw materials – Cyperus esculentus. nodules is considered. Appropriate preparation of raw materials is offered. Sprinkling shortcake dough with crushed Cyperus esculentus . nodules, pre-soaked for 12 hours in water, fried and crushed will increase the nutritional value of the product.
