What is malt topping?

Malt topping refers to a layer of malted barley or malt extract used in brewing, baking, or as a flavor enhancer in various dishes. In brewing, it contributes sweetness, color, and complexity to the beer. In baking, it can add a rich, nutty flavor and improve the texture of bread and pastries. Malt topping is often used in combination with other ingredients to enhance the overall taste profile of the final product.
