Granola Super Nutty

Extra nuts and protein make mornings easier with this satisfying breakfast staple.

What it is

Granola is a baked mixture of rolled oats, nuts, seeds, and sweeteners that's been toasted until golden and crispy. This 'Super Nutty' version is loaded with various nuts for extra protein and healthy fats.

Flavor and texture

Sweet and nutty with a satisfying crunch from the toasted oats and abundance of nuts. Each bite delivers a mix of textures from crunchy clusters to individual nuts and seeds.

Best uses

Perfect over yogurt or milk for breakfast, sprinkled on smoothie bowls, mixed into trail mix, or eaten by the handful as a wholesome snack. Also great as a topping for baked fruit desserts.

Storage & freshness

Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry pantry away from light.

Interesting note

Granola was invented in 1863 by Dr. James Caleb Jackson as a health food called 'Granula,' and it became popular again during the 1960s counterculture movement as a natural, wholesome breakfast option.
