Abstract: This study aimed at evaluating the effects of ginger inclusion on the bioactive, antioxidant, antihyperglycemic, and nutritional characteristics of groundnut‐based snack (Kulikuli). The groundnut paste used in the preparation of Kulikuli was partially substituted with different levels (2.5%, 5%, and 10%) of ginger powder. The results showed that the bioactive, antioxidant, and inhibitory properties of ginger‐substituted Kulikuli were significantly (p <.05) enhanced as the level of ginger increases. Also, carbohydrate and fiber contents of ginger‐substituted Kulikuli were significantly (p <.05) increased. There was significant reduction (p <.05) in estimated glycemic index and in vitro starch digestibility which was proportional to the level of ginger in the Kulikuli. The sensory scores of the ginger‐substituted Kulikuli revealed that they were well accepted. Therefore, ginger can serve as a functional ingredient in the making of Kulikuli, a groundnut‐based snack for people suffering from oxidant‐related diseases. With the increasing concern about the safety of orthodox hyperglycemic drugs, there is need to develop diet‐based therapy to manage diabetes mellitus. Because of this, ginger (Zingiber officinale), a spice with vast nutritional and pharmacological importance was substituted with groundnut to produce a functional groundnut‐based snacks (Kulikuli). The supplemented Kulikuli exhibited improved bioactive, antioxidant, glycemic, and antihyperglycemic properties. Therefore, the Kulikuli supplemented with ginger can serve as a functional snack for people suffering from diabetes mellitus and other oxidant‐related diseases. Practical applications: With the increasing concern about the safety of orthodox hyperglycemic drugs, there is need to develop diet‐based therapy to manage diabetes mellitus. Because of this, ginger (Zingiber officinale), a spice with vast nutritional and pharmacological importance was substituted with groundnut to produce a functional groundnut‐based snacks (Kulikuli).
