While many people may consider granola to be a simple and un-splashy food, there are still many who have been doing what they can to raise its profile. From our friends at Forij, Golden Girl, Healthy Truth, Mamma Chia, Nussli 118 and Q’s Nuts to newer varities likeChef Mawa McQueen’s GrainFreeNola, there are many brands and varities that make granola more than just something to throw in your backpack.
While they may not toot their own nutritious horn, there is a new granola star that deserves its time in the spotlight.
Humble Bones granola began in a kitchen in Maine by a woman who, after years of selling her single flavor at farmer’s markets, decided it was time to pack up her own granola and go traveling too. After a rebranding and expansion of the line, Humble Granola (the name of which is a play on the translations of the new owners’ Polish and Korean names) now offers a set of crunchy treats that remains rooted in the community but that has flavor and nutrition that can satisfy anyone!
While the name may be humble the flavors and packaging stand out. Each flavor – including Peanutter Butter, Chococo, and Cinnamon Vanilla – has its own animal spirit and its own great set of ingredients that include apples. cacao, old-fashioned oats, almonds, pecans, and walnuts and lots of other healthy and power-packed stuff. And as they come without any added oils or fats, you can enjoy them even when you are not hiking!
Granola may not always be flashy, but Humble Bones sure is satisfying!
