What is Enriched Flour?
During the production of certain foods such as breads and other baked goods, certain minerals and natural vitamins are stripped away to improve texture or shelf life. For example, the bran and the germ are extracted from the wheat. In an effort to improve the nutritional value, food producers add back vitamins and minerals.
Accordingly, Enriched Flour typically contains Thiamine Mononitrate (B1), Riboflavin (B2), Niacin (B3), and Folic Acid (B9).
Foods that typically contain Enriched Flour include bread, brownies, cake, cookies, crackers, donuts, pasta, and pizza.
