What it is

Organic sprouted spelt flour is made from spelt, an ancient grain related to wheat. The spelt berries are soaked in water until they begin to sprout, then dried and milled into flour. Sprouting can change the grain's nutritional profile and make it easier to digest.

Why it's used

Spelt flour is used as a substitute for wheat flour in baking, including breads, cookies, and cakes. Manufacturers may use it for its nutty flavor and slightly different baking properties compared to all-purpose flour. It can also contribute to the texture of baked goods.

Health notes

Spelt flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Sprouted spelt flour is a source of fiber, protein, and various micronutrients. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated spelt and its components. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming spelt flour at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

Spelt is a type of wheat and therefore contains gluten. Wheat is one of the 9 FDA major allergens.
