What it is

Nonfat dry milk is a dairy product made by removing water from pasteurized skim milk. The resulting powder contains protein, lactose, and minerals found in milk, but very little fat.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use nonfat dry milk as an ingredient to add a milky flavor and improve the texture of foods. It can also act as a binder and contribute to browning in baked goods. It is commonly found in baked goods, ice cream, and snack foods.

Health notes

Nonfat dry milk is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of protein and calcium. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated nonfat dry milk. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info
