Despite having high polyphenolic phytochemicals and functional components, apple pomace (AP) is often discarded in landfills, leading to pollution. The study aimed to find a sustainable application for AP in Greek yogurt fortified with AP syrup (APS). Physicochemical characteristics and antioxidant properties were analyzed for APS (APS0.00, APS1.25, APS2.50, APS3.75, APS5.00). As the AP content in the syrup increased, moisture content, titratable acidity, and viscosity significantly increased (p< 0.05). The total polyphenols and flavonoid content of APS increased with increasing AP content. In Greek yogurt fortified with APS (APY), reducing sugar content (0.55 mg/mL to 0.71 mg/mL) significantly increased with fermentation time and AP content, whereas pH level (6.85 to 4.28) decreased. The antioxidant activities by DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power, and reducing power were also significantly increased with the AP content and fermentation time. In the consumer acceptance test of APY, APY1.25 had significantly high scores in overall acceptance, taste acceptance, and aftertaste acceptance with purchase intent (p< 0.05). The Greek yogurt fortified with APS as functional food had improved antioxidant properties and consumer acceptance, suggesting the possibility of developing sustainable AP products.
