Flourish Millworks Diastatic Malt Powder 24oz – Premium Baking Enhancer & Dough Improver

A Baker’s Secret for Flavorful, Lifted Dough

Discover Flourish Millworks Diastatic Malt Powder, a traditional baker’s ally rooted in North Carolina farms. Made from 100% malted barley, this natural ingredient is cleaned, malted, and milled in a single location to deliver consistent performance from bag to bake. The result is a versatile powder that can become a trusted staple in your kitchen.

In baking, enzymes in diastatic malt powder work to break down starches into simple compounds that help nourish yeast, supporting a steady fermentation and a more reliable rise. This helps dough develop a sturdy structure while also contributing to Maillard browning, encouraging a rich, golden crust and a tempting aroma as it bakes. While results depend on your recipe and technique, many bakers notice a more even crumb and a crust with depth of color when using this powder as part of their routine.

What you’ll notice at home is a more forgiving dough, especially when shaping rustic loaves, braided breads, or chewy bagels. It’s a natural, additive-free way to elevate everyday bakes and bring bakery-like qualities to your own oven, without altering the core flavor of your dough.
