Homemade Plant-Based Protein Powder

Homemade Plant-Based Protein Powder

Homemade Plant-Based Protein Powder is a great alternative to expensive storebought protein supplements. This recipe is made primarily with green split peas which are a safe legume to consume raw, especially once soaked, though if you have pre-existing gastrointestinal issues, check with your doctor before trying a pea protein powder.

Split peas are a great source of plant-based protein and high in fiber while being low in fat, and a good source of folate, iron, and potassium.

  • Cocoa powder or vanilla powder

  2. The following morning rinse the split pea and drain to remove excess water. Use a clean dish towel or paper towel to dry completely.
  3. Then, preheat the oven to 350ºF and spread the split peas onto a baking sheet in a thin layer.
  4. Bake the green split peas for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown
  5. Remove the peas from the oven and allow them to completely cool.
  6. Add all the ingredients to your high-powered blender or food processor and blend until it becomes a powder, flour-like consistency.
  7. If needed, filter out any non-blended peas and blend again separetely until fully powderized.
  8. Transfer the powder to a jar with an airtight lid.
  9. Store in the refrigerator for 3-4 weeks.
