What it is

Malt syrup is a sweetener made from malted barley. The barley grains are sprouted, dried, and then mashed with hot water to convert starches into sugars. The liquid is then concentrated into a thick syrup.

Why it's used

Malt syrup is used as a sweetener and flavoring agent, providing a mild, malty taste. It is often found in baked goods like pretzels and crackers, as well as in popcorn and candy.

Health notes

Malt syrup is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is primarily a source of carbohydrates and sugars. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated malt and malt products, but specific evaluations for malt syrup alone may vary.

Allergen info

Malt syrup is derived from barley, which contains gluten. Therefore, it is not gluten-free and is a concern for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
