What it is
Dried malt is made from malted grains, usually barley. The grains are sprouted, then dried and milled into a powder. This process develops sugars and flavors.
Why it's used
Dried malt is used as a sweetener and flavor enhancer, adding a mild, sweet, malty taste. It also helps with browning in baked goods. It is commonly found in breads, cereals, snack bars, and some beverages.
Health notes
Dried malt is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of carbohydrates and some B vitamins. Regulatory bodies like JECFA have evaluated malt and its derivatives. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects at typical consumption levels.
Allergen info
Dried malt is derived from barley, which contains gluten. Therefore, it is not suitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
