What it is

Enriched wheat flour is made by grinding wheat kernels into a fine powder. During the milling process, some naturally occurring nutrients, including B vitamins (thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, folic acid) and iron, are removed. "Enrichment" means these specific nutrients are added back into the flour.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use enriched wheat flour as a primary ingredient to provide structure and texture to a wide range of baked goods. It is commonly found in products like bread, pasta, cakes, cookies, and pizza crusts. Its main function is to serve as the foundational base for these food items.

Health notes

Enriched wheat flour is a widely consumed food ingredient in the US. The FDA requires the enrichment of most refined grain products, including wheat flour, with folic acid, iron, thiamin, riboflavin, and niacin. This enrichment helps restore nutrients lost during processing and addresses public health concerns related to nutrient deficiencies. There are no specific health concerns associated with enriched wheat flour at typical intake levels for the general population, beyond those related to wheat consumption itself.

Allergen info

Wheat is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA. This ingredient also contains gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye.
