What Is Granola?

GRANOLA
Granola is a breakfast cereal that's similar to muesli. Common ingredients include oats, chopped nuts, seeds, and dried fruit. At Just Judine, we used seeds instead of nuts.
We sweetened our granola with only high-quality maple syrup. Generally, granola that's lower in added sugars will also be lower on the glycemic index thanks to ingredients like oats, and seeds, which we use plenty of.
Nutritionally, granola is typically a good source of iron, zinc, and magnesium, as well as vitamin E and B vitamins.
