FAQs
What is denatured Gluten?
Denatured gluten is gluten that undergoes a heat treatment process that removes all wheat characteristics in the gluten. It is added to our oat rolls, rice bread and 100% millet loaves to help the bread rise. Denatured gluten can trigger reactions in coeliacs and people with a high gluten intolerance.
