Fortified blended foods (FBFs), in particular, corn-soybean blend (CSB), are food aid commodities widely used in infant and young children supplementary feeding programs. A United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Food Aid Quality Review report recommended developing novel FBFs using local alternative commodities such as sorghum and improving the nutritional quality of FBFs using extrusion processing. Extruded sorghum-cowpea, sorghum-soy and corn-soy FBFs were developed and compared with the non-extruded FBFs corn-soy blend 13 (CSB13) and corn-soy blend plus (CSB+) using the in-vitro digestion/Caco-2 cell model. Dry FBFs’ iron and vitamin A content ranged from 8.0 to 31.8 mg/100g and 0.54 to 1.67 mg/100g, respectively. Following in-vitro digestion, bioavailable iron and vitamin A levels were determined by measuring Caco-2 cell ferritin and vitamin A levels in response to 12-hour and 4-hour treatments, respectively, with aqueous fractions collected from digested FBFs. Most extruded FBFs’ aqueous fraction iron levels were 2- to 7-fold higher (p
