Full details

MaxiNutrition Baking Protein is an essential pantry staple for fitness enthusiasts and home bakers looking to increase their protein intake without compromising the taste or structure of their favorite treats. By replacing 30-50% of the flour in recipes, this neutral-tasting 80% milk protein concentrate allows you to create high-protein versions of pizza, rolls, and pastries. While it provides an excellent nutritional boost, users must be careful not to exceed the recommended 180°C heat threshold to maintain the protein's integrity.

Does this contain any artificial sweeteners?

Troubleshooting

Baked goods feel too dry

Protein powder clumping in the mix

  • Clean, additive-free formula

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, start by replacing 30% of the flour volume in your recipe and adjust upward to 50% as you become familiar with the powder's behavior. Since this is a milk-derived product, ensure your storage area is cool and dry to prevent moisture absorption. Always keep the packaging sealed tightly after each use to maintain freshness. When cleaning, remember that while this is a food ingredient, it can become sticky if mixed with water alone; use standard dish soap and warm water to clean mixing bowls and utensils.
