Peanut Protein is a concentrated plant protein produced from defatted peanut material, capturing the protein fraction after oil extraction. It provides a high protein content together with a rich, well-rounded amino acid profile and is particularly high in arginine. With its characteristic flavor, it is especially suited to applications where a nutty taste is desirable or readily masked, and it adds both nutritional value and functionality to a range of products. As peanut is a regulated allergen, the ingredient is intended for clearly labeled formulations.

Peanut Protein delivers high protein content and a favorable amino acid composition that enhances the nutritional density of finished products.
It functions well as a fortifying ingredient in bakery, confectionery, and nutrition products, contributing texture alongside protein enrichment, and its plant-based origin supports vegetarian and vegan positioning. Its robust functionality makes it a practical, cost-effective choice for protein fortification; buyers should note that peanut is a major food allergen and must be declared in accordance with applicable labeling regulations.
Delivers a dense protein concentration with a rich amino acid profile naturally high in active L-arginine.
Functions exceptionally well as a texturizing and fortifying ingredient in baked foods, energy bars, and treats.
Highly functional plant-based option; buyers should note peanut requires standard allergen declaration on labels.
Peanut Protein is applied across nutraceuticals, sports nutrition, and food and beverage manufacturing, with particular relevance to bakery and confectionery as well as animal nutrition.
