Pea Protein Recipes

The recipes here are made with pea protein, a blend of pea protein, or rice protein (which, in these recipes, can be subbed with pea protein).

Pea protein is not the best tasting protein, and some people are very sensitive to the taste. My favorite pea protein blends for baking are from the Plnt line from the Vitamin Shoppe. They bake well and the taste is pretty good, considering. Check out this recipe for Protein Cupcakes that uses Plnt vanilla protein.

As compared to other types of protein, pea protein with egg whites make a very fluffy cake/baked texture. It is easier to work with than whey protein in recipes, for sure, in the sense that most pea proteins or pea protein blends can replace one another in recipes. (That's definitely not the case with whey protein.)

My favorite recipes in this section - aside from the cupcakes linked above - are these Chocolate Protein Cookies, Low Carb Pizza, and these fluffy, delicious protein pancakes. Enjoy!
