What it is

Pea protein crisp is made from dried peas. The peas are processed to isolate the protein, which is then expanded into a crisp texture, often through extrusion. This process creates a light, crunchy ingredient.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add pea protein crisp for texture and to boost the protein content of foods. Its crunchy texture makes it a popular addition to snack bars, cereals, and other baked goods. It can also be used in plant-based meat alternatives for a more satisfying mouthfeel.

Health notes

Pea protein crisp is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of plant-based protein, which is part of a healthy diet. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated pea protein, and it is not associated with significant health concerns when consumed in typical amounts found in food. Evidence does not suggest adverse effects from its use as a food ingredient.

Allergen info

Pea protein crisp is not derived from one of the nine FDA major allergens. It is also gluten-free.
