A new type of protein powder is about to hit the market, and it’s going to be a total game changer:A brand calledNooshhas developed the first everalmondprotein powder.
One scoop of the plain, unsweetened version of the non-GMO verified product(the only ingredient is"almond protein powder")provides a whopping21 grams of protein; 8 grams of carb, 5 of which are dietary fiber;3 grams of healthful fat;20% of your dailycalcium needs and 10% of your iron need.All for 120 calories total.
The powder is a much more concentrated source of protein than whole almonds. Oneounce of almonds (about 22 nuts), for example, only provides6 grams of protein, along with 6 grams of carb (3.5 of which are fiber), and 14 grams of fat—for 163 calories. The new powder is also different from almond flour (or almond meal), which is made from whole ground almonds. Aquarter cup portion of the flour contains 10 grams of protein, 10 grams of carb (with 2 as fiber), 10 grams of fat, and 160 calories.
Almond protein powderis an excellent plant-based, grain-free option, and a goodalternative for those who need or want to avoid soy protein and whey protein (dairy). What's more,Noosh'sproduction process generates less waste: Itinvolvesextractingthe nut'snatural oilto create the first U.S. branded virgin almond oil.
I predict that before long, we’ll see almondprotein powder popping up in a number of protein-bolstered products—from bars to baked goods, and everything in between. When I whipped the powder into a smoothie, it added a silky texture and hint of nutty flavor, with no chalkiness or grittiness. But it's way too versatile to only use in smoothies. Here are five simple and satisfying recipes—all gluten-free and vegan—that I developed using the plain version of Noosh’s almond protein powder. (It won't be available until May, but you canpre-order it here.)
