I've used protein powder in pancakes many times. I've even used it for french toast. I don't know how to make bread so I can't help you on that one.

yup, I guess it cuts down most of the cholesterol

2 whole eggs plus the whites from 2 eggs (no yolks)

and that's from precision nutrition.

Which doesn't matter since your body doesn't assimilate it into your blood.


Anyways, protein powder is really good to bake with. In baked goods, it acts like egg or wheat gluten as a binding agent to hold everything together.

This sounds great but has anyone tried it? I wasn't too impressed with how some of the recipes from the "deserts by berardi" pdf turned out.

I do ok for myself, I do make a mean pwo shake.

I tried his cookie recipe which was mostly natural peanut butter, protein powder, and a little bit of oil and the things turned to dust promptly after coming out of the oven. I tried another of his recipes which was supposed to be this cheesecake thing and it was like a plastic brick. I've had success with some of his recipes but I just think he gets a little overly ambitious and optimistic at times.

I've actually got pretty close to a 100% success rate with recipes I've taken from D&S members though.

What a coincidence, I do too! And here I thought no one else could match my measure and push button to blend skills!

Cheesecake is supposedly insane hard to make, even with a recipe.

i think you need to lighten up on the powder.

It's not too bad. Great cheesecake is really damn hard, passable cheesecake is quite easy. It depends on your levels of expectation. Don't think you're gonna get White Chocolate Raspberry Truffle Cheesecake the first time you try.
