Diastatic Malt Powder – Natural Dough Improver for Bread & Yeast Baking

Unlock the secret to golden crusts, tender crumbs, and better rise with Diastatic Malt Powder—a time-honoured ingredient prized by artisan bakers. Made from sprouted grains and gently dried to preserve its active enzymes, this natural dough improver enhances yeast fermentation, promotes oven spring, and supports even browning.

By converting starches into sugars, diastatic malt boosts yeast activity and contributes to the flavour, colour, and softness of baked goods. Whether you’re preparing rustic sourdough, enriched brioche, bagels, or yeasted waffles, this ingredient helps achieve consistent, professional-quality results.

Recommended Use:

  • Add 0.1% to 0.5% of flour weight

  • Ideal for: Breads, rolls, brioche, bagels, waffles, doughnuts, and soft buns

Key Features:

  • Enhances fermentation and dough conditioning

  • Improves crust colour and oven spring

  • Contributes to soft, tender texture in finished baked goods

  • Clean-label ingredient made from sprouted grain

  • Product of Canada

Try this in your sourdough!

Diastatic malt is a very useful addition (in very small amounts -- 0.25% to 1% of the weight of the flour) to sourdough. It improves the crust and the rise. It is difficult to find a made-in-Canada source, and this one is also reasonably priced. Thanks, Gusta!
