    The research work was developed to enhance the use of undervalued Andean crops, these crops have favorable characteristics in the nutritional and technological functions of dairy products, in this way they can contribute to a healthy diet. This study evaluated the effect of the addition of purple sweet potato flour (Ipomoea batatas L.) and white goose (Oxalis tuberosa) on the physicochemical properties, proximal composition, sensory attributes, viscosity and consistency of a low-fat yogurt. For the preparation of yogurt, we worked with a fat content in milk of one percent. The results obtained indicate that low-fat yogurt with the addition of purple sweet potato flour and white goose have an average pH ranging from 4.18 plus minus 0.01 and 4.12 plus minus 0.01 at 20 days of storage and a high acidity compared to the control sample. In the sensory analysis, it evaluated parameters of color, smell, taste, viscosity and acceptability, with yogurt fortified with sweet potato flour presenting the greatest acceptability. The proximal composition (moisture, ash, protein, fat, fiber, calories and carbohydrates) showed an increase in yogurts fortified with flours compared to the control sample. The samples of low-fat yogurt presented a non-Newtonian behavior of pseudoplastic type, and the color parameters varied significantly during the storage period. The addition of flours from Andean crops shows positive effects around their nutritional value, increases viscosity, and prevents the effects of synergy.
