What it is
Dried pitted plums, commonly known as prunes, are a fruit product made from ripe plums that have been dehydrated. The process removes most of the water content, concentrating the sugars and nutrients. They are a natural source of fiber and various vitamins and minerals.
Why it's used
Dried plums are used as a natural sweetener and texturizer in baked goods, cereals, and snack bars. They also add flavor and moisture to dishes. Their high fiber content makes them a popular ingredient in wholesome snacks and fruit preparations.
Health notes
Dried plums are recognized by the FDA as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). They are a good source of dietary fiber, which can aid digestion. International bodies like the WHO/FAO's JECFA have evaluated dried plums and found them safe for consumption. While often associated with digestive benefits, they are not a cure for any disease.
Allergen info
Dried plums are not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. They are also naturally gluten-free.
