Dietary fibre (DF) functionalized with polyphenols is a functional ingredients as it provides the health benefits associated with consumption of both DF and polyphenols. The present study endeavoured to prepare DF-anthocyanin formulation with different ratio of pigment-matrix where DF and anthocyanin were extracted from culinary banana bracts. The formulated powders were studied for its antioxidant, structural properties and fluorescent properties. DF-anthocyanin formulation exhibited enhancement in anthocyanin content with increase in antioxidant content and it was highest for DF-A3 with better color values (L*, a*, C*) compared to other formulations. The structure of the formulation was mainly attributed to the structure of DF and anthocyanin as evidenced by FT-IR. Moreover, changes in the degree of crystallinity were found after addition of anthocyanin in fibre matrix. The morphology study by SEM confirmed the entrapment of particles (1.97-3.88 µm) on the network structure and surface of DF. Additionally, Akin fluorescence emission spectra of DF-A3 with anthocyanin extract further confirmed the formation of DF-anthocyanin complex. Storage stability study showed DF-A3 with lowest degradation rate (k = 0.0002 day -1 ) and half-life period of 87 days.
