enriched flour

Vitamins added back

Enriched flour is refined wheat flour with certain nutrients added back after processing.

Milling removes the bran and germ, stripping away vitamins and minerals; enrichment restores some of these, typically B vitamins and iron.

Most white flour sold in the United States is enriched by law.

Check the label for enriched flour.
