Observations
Is this flan a good source of protein?
This proteinated flan provides around 12 grams of protein per serving. So it's a good source of protein.
Is a high-protein flan good for my health?
Replacing all or part of the traditional ingredients with whey (whey protein) significantly increases the protein content while reducing the sugar. If the recipe uses a sweetener instead of refined sugar and skimmed milk, this protein flan can form part of a healthy diet, provided that the overall quality of the ingredients is maintained and not abused.
Is a protein flan suitable for a diet?
Yes, if properly formulated. Thanks to its high protein content, it promotes satiety and helps maintain muscle mass during a low-calorie diet. Replace the cream with skimmed milk or low-fat yoghurt, and use a sweetener to limit carbohydrates: you've got a protein dessert that's compatible with a weight-loss or body composition goal.
Is a protein flan high in calories?
Like all desserts, they contain calories: count around 120-180 kcal per portion, depending on the amount of whey, milk and thickener used. It's generally lower in calories than a traditional flan (200-250 kcal), but it's still important to control portions and include it in your daily energy intake.
