What it is
Pea protein flour is made from dried yellow peas. The peas are milled into flour, and then the protein is extracted and concentrated. This process results in a fine powder that is rich in protein.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use pea protein flour as a plant-based protein source in foods. It can also act as a binder and emulsifier, helping to hold ingredients together and improve texture. It is commonly found in plant-based meat alternatives, protein bars, and baked goods.
Health notes
Pea protein flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a good source of plant-based protein and amino acids. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated proteins, but specific evaluations for pea protein flour may vary. At typical dietary intakes, it is considered safe and contributes to protein intake.
Allergen info
Pea protein flour is not derived from one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
