Consumer perception of protein as an important nutrient has remained strong, as evidenced by the continued increase in products that feature protein as a functional ingredient across food and beverage categories.

Consumer perception of protein as an important nutrient has remained strong, as evidenced by the continued increase in products that feature protein as a functional ingredient across food and beverage categories. High protein claims continue to experience an upward trajectory due to associations between protein and healthfulness, satiety, muscle health, physical energy, and other benefits. As consumers become more familiar with the ever-expanding variety of proteins, they are beginning to focus on areas such as quality and completeness of the protein, plant-based alternatives, and convenience of preparation. Grain Processing Corporation offers ingredient solutions to help with the innovative high-protein applications sought after today, from plant-based beverages to baked goods and on-the-go microwaveable breakfasts.

Oat Drink Mix with Protein

In the realm of popular plant-based dairy alternatives, oat milk has gained popularity due in part to its creaminess and neutral flavor profile. However, most oat milk beverages are sold in liquid, refrigerated form. GPC’s new formula, Oat Drink Dry Mix with Protein, allows consumers to quickly prepare a protein-packed beverage at their own convenience. MALTRIN QD® maltodextrins improve mouthfeel and dispersibility of the beverage while imparting minimal sweetness, and INSCOSITY® B672 food starch-modified not only provides creaminess and smoothness, but also disperses easily in both hot and cold liquids. Each serving provides up to 12g of protein!

Microwaveable, Apple Cinnamon Protein Muffin (Dry Mix) and Protein Brownie (Dry Mix)

In a rush with no time to make breakfast? Turn the clock around with this satisfying, on-the-go muffin - packed with 10g of protein. With water or milk and a matter of minutes in the microwave, you will have a warm and satisfying breakfast option to tackle the day. Our new Microwaveable, Apple Cinnamon Protein Muffin (Dry Mix) featuring MALTRIN® maltodextrins help provide the soft, tender texture that is expected from a freshly-baked muffin straight from the oven.

For a single-serve, indulgent dessert, try our Microwaveable Protein Brownie (Dry Mix). This formula allows you to prepare the moist, fudgy treat that everybody knows and loves – all within minutes (and with 12g of protein to boot!) INSCOSITY® B656 food starch-modified and MALTRIN® M180 maltodextrin work together to improve moisture retention and softness while moderating sweetness.
