The research aimed to determine how different levels of AS (0g–3g per 750ml) influence yoghurt quality. Studies have shown that plant-based starches enhance dairy texture and shelf-life. Yoghurt samples were prepared with varying AS levels. Results revealed that AS significantly increased fat, ash contents and viscosity (p
