What it is
Vanilla extract is a liquid flavoring made from vanilla beans. It can be made using alcohol and water to extract the flavor compounds from cured vanilla beans, or it can be produced synthetically to mimic the flavor of natural vanilla.
Why it's used
Vanilla extract is primarily used to add flavor to foods and beverages. It is a popular ingredient in baked goods like cookies and cakes, as well as in dairy products such as ice cream and yogurt.
Health notes
Natural vanilla extract is Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by the FDA. Artificial vanilla extract, often vanillin, is also approved for use in food. JECFA has evaluated vanilla extract and vanillin and established acceptable daily intakes. At typical consumption levels, vanilla extract is not associated with adverse health effects. Some studies suggest vanillin may have antioxidant properties, but more research is needed.
Allergen info
Vanilla extract is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
