The recipes of extruded products, namely corn sticks “Kukurudzianka” and “Kukurudzianka+” based on sugar corn grain with the increased content of vitamins and protein were developed. The recipe of extruded grain products was optimized using an inset Excel Solver of a table processor MS Excel (WINDOWS 2010). The developed extrudates may be recommended for consumption by teenagers, children, at dietary nutrition, and consumption by other population layers. Physical-chemical parameters of obtained extrudates were determined, the analysis of such parameters as soaking and digestion ability was conducted. The in vitro studies established that the developed products have a high level of assimilability, reaching almost 85 %. The obtained data of studying quality parameters demonstrated that at storage during 6 months at temperature (15±5) °С humidity 70–75 % in the polypropylene package, the content of sanitary-demonstrative microorganisms corresponds to sanitary-hygienic requirements to dry breakfasts. The developed products have the high content of protein substances that is important in the aspect of consuming need of the modern human’s organism. Consumption of 100 g of sticks provides the human organism with irreplaceable amino acids in general by 24,1 %. The products, presented in the study differ by the high content of main nutrients, necessary for the human organism. The content of calcium satisfies almost 13 % of the daily need, phosphorus – 75 % and potassium – 9 % at consumption of 100 g of corn sticks “Kukurudzianka” and “Kukurudzianka+”.
