What it is

Enriched malted wheat flour is made from wheat that has been milled into flour. Malted means that barley malt has been added, which contains enzymes that help with baking. Enriched means that certain vitamins and iron have been added back after processing.

Why it's used

This flour is used as a base ingredient in many baked goods, providing structure and texture. Its enzymes help yeast-based products rise and brown better. It is commonly found in breads, cakes, cookies, and other baked desserts.

Health notes

Enriched malted wheat flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. The added nutrients contribute to the overall nutritional profile of foods. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated flour and its components. Typical consumption as part of a balanced diet is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Wheat is one of the nine FDA major allergens. This ingredient contains wheat and therefore gluten.
