Some Thai desserts can help with you get more protein. While Western desserts tend to simply contain sugar and flour, many Thai desserts contain beans. Therefore, these desserts can serve as a source of protein. They may not account for 100% of your protein needs, but they will give you a small boost.
A traditional Thai delight, mung bean pudding blends split mung beans with coconut milk, sugar, salt, tapioca starch, rice flour, and pandan leaves, creating a nutritious dessert that can be refrigerated for several days. You can then pull a bowl out of your fridge when you’re in the mood for something sweet.
A favourite in Thailand, this dish combines the sweet and savoury with black beans, brown sugar, salt, and coconut milk, offering a balanced and satisfying treat. If you’re in the mood for a rich and creamy dessert, this is for you.
This beautiful dessert mixes hulled mung beans with coconut or palm sugar, egg yolks, sugar, coconut cream, salt, a shallot, and vegetable oil, topped with savoury fried shallots for an exquisite flavour blend. The dish is believed to have been introduced in 17th century Siam.

Although more of a snack, these tapioca balls filled with savoury minced pork and peanuts offer a blend of sweet, savoury, and nutty flavours, providing a protein kick from the pork and peanuts. This is yet another Thai dessert that combines sweet and savoury flavours.
While not high in protein, when made with ingredients like mung bean flour or incorporating nuts and seeds into its layers, it can offer a bit more protein than other traditional desserts. You may likely have seen this dessert at Thai street food vendors.
Though primarily a carb-heavy dessert, when served with mung beans sprinkled on top, it gets a slight protein boost. The primary ingredients are sticky rice, mango, and coconut milk, but the addition of mung beans adds a subtle crunch and protein.

Peanuts are a common ingredient in Thai cuisine, including in some sweet dishes and snacks. Desserts made with peanuts or peanut butter can provide a good amount of protein.
