What it is

Brown rice flour is made from whole brown rice grains that have been ground into a powder. It is a gluten-free alternative to wheat flour and retains the bran and germ of the rice kernel, giving it a slightly nutty flavor and coarser texture.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use brown rice flour as a gluten-free flour in baked goods, pasta, and bread mixes. Its whole-grain nature also adds fiber and a slightly chewy texture to products.

Health notes

Brown rice flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of dietary fiber and some nutrients. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated brown rice flour. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects at typical dietary intakes.

Allergen info

Brown rice flour is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It is naturally gluten-free.
