What it is

Bleached enriched flour is made from wheat flour that has been treated with an oxidizing agent to whiten it. It is also enriched with added vitamins and minerals, such as iron and B vitamins, to replace those lost during processing.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use bleached enriched flour as a primary ingredient in baked goods because it creates a softer texture and lighter color. It is commonly found in cakes, cookies, pastries, and breads.

Health notes

Bleached enriched flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. The enrichment process adds back essential nutrients. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated flour and its components. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption of enriched flour.

Allergen info

Bleached enriched flour is derived from wheat, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It contains gluten.
