Organic pea protein isolate - the plant-based powerhouse for artisan bakers & the nutrition-conscious
Plant-based proteins are far more than just a trend - they are an essential ingredient for the modern, conscious bakery. Our organic pea protein isolate is made from organic yellow peas and, with a protein content of over 82%, provides a functional and nutritious base for your creations [cite: 13, 15]. Unlike many conventional proteins, our isolate impresses with its purity, organic origin and excellent technical properties in the dough.
Why pea protein from the Spiegelhauer bakery?
As a family bakery, we select our raw materials according to strict criteria. Pea protein is irreplaceable in vegan and gluten-free bakeries as it has a natural emulsifying capacity. It helps to bind water and fats in the dough in a stable manner. The result: baked goods that stay fresh for longer, have a better structure and retain a moist crumb - a decisive advantage when baking without wheat gluten.
Unique nutrient profile in detail
Our organic pea protein is not just a source of protein, but a real superfood, as the latest analysis shows:
-
Concentrated protein (82.3 %): A high-quality profile that covers all essential amino acids.
-
Natural source of iron (224 mg/kg): A particularly important value for a plant-based diet.
-
Rich in zinc & magnesium: With 84.7 mg/kg zinc and 407 mg/kg magnesium, it supports the supply of essential minerals.
-
Vitamin B complex: It naturally contains vitamin B12 (1.15 µg/100g) and pantothenic acid (0.67 mg/100g) [cite: 15, 16].
-
Low carb & sugar free: With only 0.6g of carbohydrates and less than 0.25g of total sugars per 100g, it is ideal for ketogenic recipes.
Possible applications: From protein bread to vegan burgers
The possible uses of this microfine powder are almost unlimited. We particularly recommend it for:
-
Functional baking: replace 10-20% of the flour with pea protein. It improves the stability of doughs and ensures an appealing browning of the crust.
-
Gluten-free recipes: Here, the protein acts as a structuring agent and compensates for the lack of gluten.
-
Hearty dishes: Due to its subtle note, it is ideal for binding vegan patties, soups or sauces.
-
Sports nutrition: Mix it into smoothies or make your own sugar-free protein bars.
By purchasing our organic pea protein, you are not only supporting your own diet, but also sustainable agriculture. At the Spiegelhauer bakery, we stand with our name for raw materials that we would also use ourselves in our daily manual work.
