Nature’s Path Granola in a Dozen Classic Dairy-Free & Organic Flavors

No matter how many different types of granola I try, and no matter how many I fall in love with, I just can’t seem to stop browsing for more. So how could I possibly resist sampling at least a couple boxes of Nature’s Path Granola? It now comes in twelve dairy-free, kosher pareve varieties, most of which are vegan. Also, they have changed their packaging! My pictures were taken just before it switched, but this image shows the transition to their new look.

Nature’s Path Granola in a Dozen Classic Dairy-Free & Organic Flavors

Nature’s Path Granola is made from wholesome, simple, organic ingredients and is available in a wide range of flavors. As we try each variety, we’ll add our tasting notes and the ingredients. But please do comment with your own review on any of the flavors that you have taste-tested.

Hemp Hearts (formerly known as Hemp Plus)

This granola is a little lighter than your average granola and has a wonderful crispy crunch. However, it does get soggier in milk. I’d call it a granola-cereal hybrid. The flavor is good, and not overly sweet, yet somehow the sweetness doesn’t meld well. It tastes a little like sugar coating the grains rather than baked in. Perhaps if they changed the sweetener to something like maple syrup and used a higher ratio of whole grains to crisps, then it would hit the mark for hearty perfection. Nonetheless, I enjoyed it and thought they were quite generous with the flaxseeds. But considering the name, I expected more hemp seeds.

Ingredients: whole grain rolled oats*, cane sugar*, soy oil*, brown rice flour*, flax seeds*, oat syrup solids* (oat syrup solids*, tocopherols), hemp seeds*, sea salt, molasses*. *organic. contains soy. produced in a facility that uses wheat, peanuts and tree nuts.

Peanut Butter

This is a must buy for peanut butter fans. It was a little to rich for my husband, but I loved the density. They really don’t skimp on this granola, which has flaxseeds, peanut butter, and roasted peanuts in every spoonful.

Ingredients: whole grain rolled oats*, cane sugar*, soy oil*, peanut butter*, brown rice flour*, roasted peanuts*, oat syrup solids* (oat syrup solids*, tocopherols), sea salt, tocopherols (natural vitamin e), molasses*. *organic. contains peanuts and soy. produced in a facility that uses wheat and tree nuts.

Good quality granola

When it is on sale, I buy this brand. I like the ingredients, the fact that the sugars aren’t too high (their serving sizes are larger than most), and most of them are quite tasty. I would say they are on par with other natural brands, but can be pricey.
