So, what is extract de malt?

Malt extract is a natural sweetener derived from sprouted barley. It is made by soaking the barley grains in water until they begin to sprout, and then drying and roasting them. The resulting product is a syrupy liquid that is high in maltose, a type of sugar that is easily digested and absorbed by the body. Malt extract is often used as a flavoring agent in baked goods, cereals, and beverages, and is also popular as a health supplement due to its high nutrient content. It is a versatile ingredient that adds a rich, caramel-like flavor to any recipe.
