What it is

Banana puree concentrate is made from ripe bananas that have been processed to remove most of their water content. This process intensifies the banana flavor and creates a thicker product, making it easier to transport and use in food manufacturing.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use banana puree concentrate to add natural banana flavor, sweetness, and color to a variety of products. It is commonly found in beverages like juices and smoothies, as well as in yogurt, baked goods, and desserts.

Health notes

Banana puree concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of natural sugars, fiber, and potassium. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar fruit preparations, but no specific numeric limits have been set for this ingredient. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects at typical consumption levels.

Allergen info

Banana is not one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
