A plant-based food product and methods of producing thereof. The plant-based food product may include a gel matrix formed from about 20% to 80% w/w of a liquid and about 15% to 50% w/w of a flour, a plant-derived protein or a combination thereof. The flour and/or plant-derived protein may be pretreated by impregnation and enriched with an additive, an amino acid, a peptide, a protein or a dietary supplement. The gel matrix may be formed by mixing the components, optionally pressurizing the mixture within a cooking container and heating at a maintained temperature to form a gel matrix to provide a plant-based food product that mimics the characteristics of meat fat. The gel matrix may be incorporated into plant-based meats or other non-meat base products as a visual, taste and/or mouthfeel mimicker of fat.
