What it is

Unbromated wheat flour is flour milled from wheat kernels that has not been treated with potassium bromate. It is a fundamental ingredient made by grinding wheat grains into a fine powder.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use unbromated wheat flour as a primary ingredient in a wide range of baked goods, including breads, cookies, cakes, and pastries. It provides structure and texture to these products.

Health notes

Wheat flour itself is a common food ingredient and not regulated by the FDA as an additive. The term "unbromated" indicates the absence of potassium bromate, an additive that can be used to strengthen dough. The FDA permits potassium bromate as a food additive. However, California will ban potassium bromate in food products starting in 2027. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has stated that potassium bromate is not appropriate as a flour treatment agent. The European Union has banned potassium bromate as a food additive.

Allergen info

Wheat is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA. Wheat flour also contains gluten.
