Organic Malted Black Barley Flour

Organic malted black barley flour is made from whole black barley grains that have been germinated (malted) and then dried and ground. Malting changes the starches and sugars in the grain, making it sweeter and easier to digest. It is a whole grain flour used in baking.

Manufacturers use organic malted black barley flour for its slightly sweet, malty flavor and its whole grain properties. It can add a unique taste and color to baked goods. It is often found in cookies, crackers, and other baked snacks.

Organic malted black barley flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of dietary fiber and nutrients found in barley. JECFA has evaluated barley and its derivatives, but no specific numeric limits are set for this flour. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.
