What it is

Enriched flour is refined wheat flour that has added B vitamins (thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, folic acid) and iron. The refining process removes some of the natural nutrients found in whole wheat. Enrichment helps restore these lost nutrients.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use enriched flour as a primary ingredient in baked goods like bread, pasta, and biscuits. It provides structure and texture to these foods. It is found in a wide variety of packaged foods, especially those in the breakfast and prepared meals categories.

Health notes

Enriched flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in foods. The added nutrients, particularly folic acid, are important for public health. The World Health Organization (WHO) has evaluated flour fortification programs. Typical intakes of enriched flour are not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

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