Granola from Nature's Hand: Review

Nature's Hand is a company that has been making granola since 1971. All of the varieties they produce are sweetened using caramelized brown sugar and honey and the taste is amazing.

I received four different flavors to try; Original Vanilla Almond, Cranberry Apricot, Wild Blueberry and Cinnamon Apple.


The Original Recipe is delicious and my favorite of all the granola I sampled. The almonds and sunflower seeds offset the granola so well.


The Cranberry Apricot's chewy dried fruit pieces are fresh and pair nicely with the granola.

While I ate all of the granola flavors for breakfast, I also just sat and snacked with the Wild Blueberry. It was a very satisfying snack to keep me full, and knowing I was eating something good for me instead of junk was a plus too .


1/4 cup is the recommended serving size but when you pour that into a standard cereal bowl, it doesn't look like a lot. If you're like me....you'll be adding more. I would be remiss if I didn't tell you that for breakfast you might be overeating the stuff. I almost always double my serving size because it is that yummy .

Since he watches his cholesterol intake, Nature's Hand granola is a perfect choice for Hubby. All 6 flavors (the other two I did not try are Raisin Hazelnut and Coconut Cashew), have 0mg of cholesterol.

Nature's Hand is also lending a hand as it is the official granola of Outward Bound U.S.A. Outward Bound is a non-profit organization that serves people of all ages and backgrounds through active learning expeditions that inspire character development, leadership and service.

Made right here in the U.S.A. Nature's Bound Granola has a sticker price of $4.99 a bag which each have about 13 servings (or 6 if you're like me..... lol!). Available in stores in 6 states (finally, finally something available here in Podunk, thank you Nature's Hand!), and online at their website. The whole family will enjoy the taste and your options for using it are many from breakfast to baking (there are over a dozen recipes to use it in on their site!).

Please read **About Reviews at the bottom of the page. I was provided 4 bags of Nature's Hand Granola in order to try it out prior to writing this review.
