The efficacy of this strategy is unknown for the World Food Programme's Super Cereal Plus (SC+) and Super Cereal (SC) blends. The primary goal of this study was to investigate the increased energy intake from amylase-containing SC+ and SC compared to control porridges in Burkinabe children. Secondly, energy intake from amylase-containing porridges compared to CERELAC((R)), Vitazom, and eeZeeBAR was studied. Thirdly, caregivers' (n=100) porridge acceptability was investigated. The design was a randomized double-blind controlled cross-over trial studying the effect of amylase addition to SC+ and SC flours on porridge energy and nutrient intake in healthy Burkinabe children aged 12-23 (n=80) and 24-35months (n=40). Amylase added to porridges increased energy density from 0.68 to 1.16kcal/g for SC+ and from 0.66 to 1.03kcal/g for SC porridges. Among children aged 12-23months, mean energy intake from all porridges with amylase (135-164kcal/meal) was significantly higher compared to control SC+ porridges (84-98kcal/meal; model-based average). Among children aged 24-35months, mean energy intakes were also significantly higher from all porridges with amylase added (245-288kcal/meal) compared to control SC porridges (175-183kcal/meal). Acceptability of the porridges among caregivers was rated neutral to good, both for amylase-added and non-amylase-containing porridges. These findings suggest that, among 12-35-month-old, adding amylase to fortified blended foods significantly increased energy and consequently nutrient intake per meal by 67% for SC+ and 47% for SC. Moreover, amylase-containing porridges were well accepted by the caregivers. %$ 054
