ORGANIC PEA PROTEIN POWDER, 80% PROTEIN



Yupik’s Pea Protein powder is a plant-based source of protein derived from pea, extracted through an extensive process. After harvest, peas are dried and grinded into a fine flour, then mixed with water, fermented, and separated from the fiber and starch. The paste is then dried and ground into powder.
Throughout the years, this superfood has rapidly gained popularity among athletes and gym goers, for its health benefits. Just to mention a few, recent studies have shown that it may support heart health and help regulate blood sugar levels.
Being gluten-free and dairy-free in its purest form, field experts consider it as one of the best protein alternatives in case of food allergies, and for those following vegan, vegetarian, or other special diets.

BAKING TIPS: the secret to baking success
When baking with protein powder, it is generally recommended to use a 4:1 ratio of flour to protein powder as rule of thumb. Since the powder tends to absorb the liquid, avoid adding more powder to make it smooth, or else you may end up with a hard, and compact hockey disk-like dessert! Last but not least, in order to preserve the protein in the powder, make sure not to overcook (or burn) your dishes!
