What it is
Brown rice flakes are made from whole grain brown rice that has been steamed and then flattened into thin flakes. This process makes the rice easier to cook and digest, similar to how rolled oats are made from oat groats.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add brown rice flakes to foods primarily for their texture, nutritional value, and to provide a whole grain component. They are often found in breakfast cereals, granola bars, cookies, and various baked goods, contributing fiber and a mild, nutty flavor.
Health notes
Brown rice flakes are considered a whole food ingredient and are Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by the FDA. As a whole grain, brown rice is a source of dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals. There are no specific health concerns associated with brown rice flakes at typical consumption levels, and they are not evaluated by JECFA or EFSA as a food additive.
Allergen info
Brown rice flakes are not a major allergen. They are naturally gluten-free.
