Abstract

Stunting is a part of the wider nutrition crisis found in one out of four children under five in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to create a complementary food enriched with local food Dadih and its effect on changes in consumption of stunted children aged 12-24 months. The product of this study was biscuits as complementary food enriched with Dadih. Its nutritional value per serving is 557.5 kcal of energy, 17.3 grams of protein, 44 grams of fat, and 37.8 grams of carbohydrate. There was a change in the consumption of stunted children's nutrition in the two groups after the intervention. Still, it was not sufficient yet based on the recommended nutritional adequacy rates. The change in energy consumption in the intervention group was better than that of the control group. This type of product is good enough for stunted children as a complementary food.
