What it is

Enriched wheat flour is flour that has had certain nutrients added back after processing. These nutrients typically include B vitamins (thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, folic acid) and iron. It is made from wheat grains that have been milled into flour.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add enriched wheat flour as a primary ingredient to provide structure and bulk in baked goods. It is commonly found in breads, muffins, pasta, and cereals. It serves as the base for many grain-based food products.

Health notes

Enriched wheat flour is a staple in many diets and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. The added nutrients can help prevent deficiencies, particularly folic acid, which is important for preventing neural tube defects. JECFA has evaluated flour fortification, and EFSA has also reviewed the use of added vitamins and minerals in foods. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption of enriched wheat flour.

Allergen info

Wheat is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Enriched wheat flour contains gluten, a protein found in wheat that can cause adverse reactions in individuals with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity.
