Betung bamboo shoots contain 59 gm of phosphorus and 13 mg of calcium, so they are good sources of natural nutrients for the body. The purpose of the study was to determine the organoleptic characteristics of the Egyptian martabak from bamboo betung shoots and to determine consumer acceptance of the Egyptian martabak from bamboo betung shoots. This study used an experimental method with three treatments and 3 repetitions using a completely randomized design (CRD). Data collection techniques used observation tests conducted by 5 sources, and acceptance tests were carried out by 30 consumers. The results of the observation test were analyzed by calculating the average value obtained from the sources, while the acceptance test was analyzed using a one-way analysis of variance (ANAVA). The results of the observation by the interviewees chose the Egyptian martabak, bamboo shoots, treatment 3 with the code MM3 with the addition of 70 gm of bamboo shoots, the average value was 23.31.
