Barley Malt Powder, 1 lb.

If they only labeled it correctly they would sell far more of this product. I've purchased from Barry Farm for years, and had to laugh at all the arguments and questions online about what this really is. It is MALT. Dried, powdered malt flour, for flavoring, light sweetening, and to aid browning. It is Not "Diastatic" malt which still has enzymatic activity, since This is roasted to stop that activity. Think of it as "malted milk powder" but Without the dry milk and (important) without all the added sugar.It has a natural sweetness all its own, and this shipment has a more yellow color than many I've used. ADDICTING USES: Add a teaspoon to your buttermilk pancake recipe to make people wonder (I recreated - after trying for years - some I fell in love with in San Francisco years ago). It also is important for Banana Muffins (and bread) - especially if adding a bit of whole wheat flour to the mix. Also helps Blueberry muffins and loafs. But omit or half the vanilla in those quick-bread based recipes; it's too much if adding malt. And yes, use it for flavoring beverages, cocoa, hot milk, etc. And IMHO, it's a must in Bialy recipes. (For easier blending, add it to the sugar and salt portions of recipes before mixing in.)

In my early 20’s I was hooked on Foster’s Freeze banana malts. This doesn’t have any added sugars in it, so as a diabetic type 2 I add stevia to a frozen banana, Califia Coconut Almond milk, and this malt for a smoothie shake! It tastes like I remember it from the restaurant 👍, and without the vanilla ice cream!The package is as depicted. I would recommend that the company use a nicer zip lock and label. No complaints whatsoever though. God’s blessings to all of you! 🙏

Wow! I can't believe it took me this long to discover this, considering how much I love malted milk! This was delivered quickly and is delicious. I was excited to learn about this product because I figured adding a little malt to my smoothies would help me get all the healthy down. I wanted to be able to enjoy malted milk without processing or sugar, and instead be able to use stevia or agave as a sweetener. Barley malt powder does have as many calories as sugar and is used as a sweetener, so you will have to decide for yourself. I like having it as an option, especially since it comes from sprouted barley. It tastes sweet on its own, but I found through experimenting (tough job, but someone's got to do it) that adding a few packets of stevia to the blend with the malt powder brought out the flavor of the malt. Do your own experimenting. You can't go wrong at this price for the quality.

We were looking for an Organic Malt Powder to make homemade Malt Shakes. This was as close as I could find. It makes great Malt Shakes-delicious. I would give it 5 stars if I knew it was at least non-GMO, if not Organic. I'll keep looking, but in the meantime, it is "all natural" and contains no added sugar.

Barley malt powder goes great in our homemade "Ovaltine" powder. Its a pricey ingredient compared to the others, but if you like an old fashioned malt, this is what you want. This is a smooth and very fine powder. One pound is equal to about a quart. After I opened the bag, I poured the rest into a quart jar for storage. This bag doesn't re seal, so you will need to store it elsewhere.

If your vegan and miss malts, malted milks....this is the right stuff to get. Oh man, I have missed malts and this stuff is doing it for me!!! So glad I bought it. And yes, it IS the right stuff that tastes like malt, not the baking one.

Well, I live in the South, where asian stores are few and far between. To make Sikhye sweet tea, I needed barley malt powder. Unfortunately, this powder doesn't really taste very good for that purpose. It's way too strong tasting (like hops). For something like a milkshake or anything else, a spoonful of this would probably taste good. You really don't need much.But for Sihkye tea, it tasted pretty odd. It lacked that smooth taste. No matter how you mix it with water, it won't dissolve completely. My method was to soak it in boiling water for 2 hours, let the powder settle back to the bottom like a glue, then siphon off the top malt liquid. It was a vivid gold color instead of the pale beige I was looking for.Oh well, might be great in other recipes. But careful! It's strong!

Since I have always loved the taste of malt, I grew up drinking malteds, made from real malt powder. My faves were chocolate and banana. When I became an adult, it occurred to me that you could hardly find a real malted any longer--only "shakes". Also, as an adult, I begin to bake my own bread and discovered, through reading a lot of information about bread-baking, that "barley malt" was an ingredient that artisan bakers used in their loaves. At first I purchased the liquid form of barley malt and didn't even connect the fact that this was real "malt", only in liquid form. I added it to some of my bread recipes and the result was a positive one, in yielding richer tasting breads. But the problem with the liquid is that you refrigerate it, and subsequently, it is a sticky, syrupy substance--difficult to measure out. Hence, my interest in the powder form of malt. This product is the real thing. It has NO ADDED SUGAR, like most other products do. Other recognizable-named products work well, if you just want a "drink powder", but if you want the most nutritious substance, able to enhance your yeast baking, AND to make divine malteds and ice cream sundaes, GET THIS PRODUCT. I will continue to buy this pure Barley Malt Powder. Love it!
