What it is

Dried nonfat milk is a dairy product made by removing water from pasteurized skim milk. The process concentrates the milk solids, resulting in a powder that is shelf-stable and easy to transport. It contains protein, lactose, and minerals, but very little fat.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use dried nonfat milk as a source of protein and dairy flavor, and to improve texture and browning in baked goods. It is also used to add body and richness to powdered beverages, desserts, and processed foods.

Health notes

Dried nonfat milk is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as a food ingredient. It is a source of calcium and protein. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated dried milk products. Typical consumption as part of a balanced diet is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Dried nonfat milk is derived from milk, which is one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
