What it is

Malted barley flour is made from barley grains that have been allowed to sprout, or germinate, and then dried. This germination process changes the starches in the barley into sugars, making it sweeter and easier to digest. It is often used as a flavoring and coloring agent in baked goods.

Why it's used

Malted barley flour is used in baking to add a malty flavor, improve crust color, and enhance the texture of bread, cookies, and other baked goods. It can also act as a natural sweetener and yeast nutrient, helping bread dough rise.

Health notes

Malted barley flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of carbohydrates and some B vitamins. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated malt and malt extracts. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info

Malted barley flour is derived from barley, which contains gluten. Gluten is not one of the 9 FDA major allergens, but it is a concern for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
