In one embodiment, this invention is directed to a protein containing composition for coating a food product, comprising; a liquid batter protein material comprising a liquid and a soy protein material wherein the weight ratio of liquid to soy protein material is from about 3-20 to 1; and a soy fiber material; wherein the food product coating has a non-fiber carbohydrate content of not more than 5 grams non-fiber carbohydrate per serving. In a second embodiment, the composition further comprises a pre-dust protein material in addition to the liquid batter protein material and the soy fiber material. In a third embodiment, the composition comprises a liquid batter protein material comprising a liquid and a soy protein material wherein the weight ratio of liquid to soy protein material is from about 3-20 to 1; a breading protein material containing at least 50% soy protein by weight on a moisture free basis; and a soy fiber material; wherein the food product coating has a non-fiber carbohydrate content of not more than 5 grams non-fiber carbohydrate per serving. In a fourth embodiment, the composition further comprises a pre-dust protein material in addition to the liquid batter protein material, the breading protein material and the soy fiber material wherein the pre-dust protein material contains at least 50% soy protein by weight on a moisture free basis. In a fifth embodiment, the composition comprises a liquid clear coat protein material in addition to the liquid batter protein material, the breading protein material, the pre-dust protein material and the soy fiber material. The liquid clear coat protein material comprises a liquid and a soy protein material wherein the weight ratio of liquid to soy protein material is from about 3-40 to 1.
