Baking with whey protein does not denature the protein or the amino acids therein. In fact, there is at least one company - The Protein Bakery - that sells brownies and cookies that have decent amounts of whey per item, and that taste good.

About denaturing

Another note on denaturing:

When you cook eggs, and they turn white and solid, that is exactly what you are doing: denaturing the protein. As far as I know this does not make them less nutritious. Also, I tried adding a can of water with 2 scoops plain whey protein rather than a can of milk to broccoli cheese soup last night. As I heated it it got kind of lumpy, almost as if there was egg in it. Next time I will do it differently.

BTW, one can of 98% fat free broccoli soup, with one can of water with 2 scoops whey, over pasta is a great tasting dish!

Also, I'm thinking of baking cookies using whey instead of flour. Anyone tried this?
