Finding convenient ways to hit your daily protein targets just got easier. Our range of protein foods brings together everything from spreads and snacks to baking mixes, all designed to deliver quality nutrition without compromise. Whether you're meal prepping for the week ahead or looking for a quick bite between sessions, these products fit seamlessly into your routine.

Each option in this collection has been developed by Myprotein's expert nutritionists to provide practical, protein-rich solutions. From nut butters that work in smoothies and porridge to grab-and-go snacks that keep things simple, you'll find products that support your goals without the hassle. Real ingredients, straightforward nutrition, and flavours that actually deliver.

Who These Are For

These protein foods work for anyone looking to increase their protein intake through convenient, everyday options. Gym-goers often use them to bridge the gap between meals, whilst those with busy schedules appreciate having protein-rich snacks and ingredients on hand. From students grabbing breakfast on the go to office workers keeping desk drawers stocked, the versatility makes them accessible to everyone.

They're particularly useful for people who find it challenging to meet protein requirements through traditional meals alone. If you're training regularly, following a structured nutrition plan, or simply want to make protein intake less of a chore, these products remove the guesswork. They're also popular with anyone reducing animal products in their diet, as options like powdered peanut butter and plant-based snacks provide solid alternatives.

When to Use Protein Foods

Timing depends entirely on your routine and preferences. Many people incorporate protein-rich foods at breakfast—mixing peanut butter into porridge or preparing protein pancakes sets a strong nutritional foundation for the day. Post-workout is another popular window, with brownies and flapjacks offering a combination of protein and carbohydrates when energy stores need replenishing.

Between-meal snacking is where these products really shine. Having high protein foods available prevents reaching for less nutritious options when hunger strikes. Late evening can work too, particularly if you're spacing protein intake throughout the day. The key is consistency rather than perfection—build these foods into your existing habits rather than forcing rigid schedules.

Protein Foods Benefits

Supports Muscle Growth and Maintenance

Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass¹. Including protein-rich foods throughout your day helps ensure you're meeting the levels needed for these processes, particularly when combined with resistance training.

Convenient Protein Delivery

These products remove the preparation time usually associated with high protein foods. Whether it's spreading nut butter on toast or grabbing a pre-made brownie, you're getting substantial protein without cooking or complex meal prep. This convenience makes consistency far more achievable.

Versatile Usage Options

From baking ingredients to standalone snacks, protein foods adapt to multiple situations. Use pancake mix for weekend brunches, add powdered peanut butter to shakes, or keep flapjacks in your gym bag. The same products work across different contexts, reducing the need for multiple specialist items.

Supports Bone Health

Protein contributes to the maintenance of normal bones². Whilst often overlooked in favour of muscle-related benefits, adequate protein intake plays a role in maintaining skeletal health alongside other nutrients like calcium and vitamin D.

FAQs

What exactly are protein foods?

Protein foods are everyday items formulated to provide higher protein content than standard equivalents. This includes spreads like peanut butter, ready-to-eat snacks such as brownies and flapjacks, and baking mixes that add protein to home-prepared meals. They're designed to make increasing protein intake simpler without requiring supplements or shakes.

How do these compare to getting protein from whole foods?

These products complement rather than replace whole food sources. Whilst chicken, fish, eggs, and legumes should form your foundation, protein-rich foods fill gaps where convenience matters. They're particularly useful when traditional cooking isn't practical—during travel, at work, or when time is limited.

The protein quality depends on the source. Products using whey or milk protein provide complete amino acid profiles similar to dairy, whilst nut-based options offer plant protein alongside healthy fats. Check individual product pages for specific protein sources and amounts.

Which protein food should I choose?

Start by considering when you need protein most. If breakfast is rushed, pancake mix or peanut butter works well. For portable snacking, brownies and flapjacks travel easily. Those wanting maximum versatility often choose powdered peanut butter, which adapts to both cooking and direct consumption.

Dietary preferences matter too. Check ingredients if you're avoiding dairy, gluten, or specific allergens. Most products list protein content clearly, so match the amount to your daily targets—someone needing 150g total daily protein will make different choices than someone targeting 80g.

When during the day should I have protein foods?

Distribution across the day tends to work better than loading protein into one meal. Many people include protein-rich foods at breakfast to start strong, then use snacks like brownies or flapjacks between main meals. Post-training is another logical window, though any time that fits your routine works fine.

The total daily intake matters more than precise timing for most goals. If you're training seriously, spacing protein every 3-4 hours supports ongoing muscle protein synthesis, but even casual exercisers benefit from consistent availability throughout the day.

How much protein do these foods actually provide?

Amounts vary by product. Protein brownies typically deliver 20-25g per serving, flapjacks around 15-20g, and pancake mixes can exceed 30g per prepared portion. Nut butters provide roughly 6-8g per tablespoon, whilst powdered versions concentrate this into smaller servings.

Check individual product nutrition panels for exact figures. Remember these contribute to your total daily protein rather than providing everything you need—combine them with meals containing fish, meat, eggs, or legumes to reach your overall target.

Can I use protein foods for weight management?

High protein foods can support various nutritional approaches. Protein requires more energy to digest than carbohydrates or fats, and many people find protein-rich options useful when managing their intake. However, total calories still determine weight changes—protein foods aren't magic solutions.

Products like powdered peanut butter offer lower-calorie alternatives to traditional spreads, whilst brownies and flapjacks provide controlled portions with known macronutrient content. This makes tracking simpler if you're monitoring intake, though they're equally valuable when the goal is maintaining or gaining weight.

Who developed these protein food products?

Myprotein's expert nutritionists formulate these products, balancing protein content with taste and practicality. The team considers everything from ingredient sourcing to flavour development, ensuring each product delivers meaningful nutrition without compromising on quality or convenience.

Are protein foods suitable for plant-based diets?

Some products work for plant-based approaches whilst others contain dairy. Peanut butter options are typically vegan-friendly, providing plant protein from nuts. Many protein snacks use whey protein from milk, so check labels carefully if avoiding animal products.

Plant-based protein foods are expanding across the range, with manufacturers increasingly offering dairy-free brownies, flapjacks, and baking mixes. Individual product pages specify protein sources and allergen information clearly.

How should I store protein foods?

Storage depends on the product type. Nut butters last months in cupboards before opening, then typically need refrigeration to maintain quality. Ready-to-eat snacks like brownies and flapjacks stay fresh in cool, dry storage—check best-before dates and seal packaging after opening.

Pancake and baking mixes remain stable in sealed containers away from moisture. Once prepared, treat them like regular baked goods—refrigerate if not consuming immediately and use within a few days. Powdered products generally offer longest shelf life when kept dry.

Can I combine different protein foods in one day?

Absolutely. Using multiple protein food items throughout the day helps prevent monotony whilst ensuring consistent protein availability. You might have pancakes at breakfast, peanut butter on toast mid-morning, and a brownie post-workout—each contributes to your daily total from different sources and contexts.

Variety also means accessing different amino acid profiles if combining plant and dairy sources. There's no upper limit to how many protein-rich foods you can include, provided total calories and overall nutrition align with your goals.
