What it is

Wheat flour is the fine powder made from the endosperm of wheat grains. It is a staple food ingredient used worldwide, primarily for baking bread, cakes, and pastries. The milling process grinds the wheat kernels into a fine powder, separating the bran and germ from the starchy endosperm.

Why it's used

Fortified with niacin (a B vitamin), wheat flour is used as a primary ingredient in baked goods like cakes, cupcakes, and pies. Niacin is added to enrich the flour, helping to restore nutrients lost during processing and contributing to the overall structure and texture of the final product.

Health notes

Wheat flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for food use. Niacin is an essential nutrient. The FDA requires enrichment of refined wheat flour with specific B vitamins, including niacin, and iron. JECFA has evaluated niacin and established guidance on its use. Typical dietary intake of niacin from enriched flour is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Wheat is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Wheat flour contains gluten, a protein that can cause adverse reactions in individuals with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity.
