So, what is malted barley syrup?
Malted barley syrup is a natural sweetener made from sprouted barley grains that have been dried and ground into a fine powder. The powder is then mixed with water and cooked down to form a thick, amber-colored syrup with a distinctive malty flavor. With a low glycemic index and a range of vitamins and minerals, malted barley syrup is a healthier alternative to refined sugar. Its rich, complex flavor makes it a popular ingredient in baked goods, sauces, dressings, and beverages. It is also used as a natural coloring agent in food and drinks.
