Julian Bakery® ProGranola® Cereal | Peanut Butter Cluster | 12g Protein | 2 Net Carbs | Gluten-Free | Grain-Free | 14 Servings

If you like your granola crunchy, grainy, and not too sweet then you'll LOVE this! That's exactly how I like my granola so the Julian Bakery line is perfect for me...plus higher in protein than most granolas. My only problem is not eating the entire bag in a day.....

I recently encountered JulianBakery ProGranola, a delightful breakfast food, at my fitness club's smoothie bar. I usually get my granola from Trader Joe's. Even though I enjoy TJ's granola, it did not score as high on the Yuka scale for healthiness, nor did I feel full. I want only the best for my health. I also want to lose weight, so I shouldn't snack too much because I feel hungry all the time. What I like most is that Julian Bakery ProGranola Cereal is the first granola that has made me feel satiated in a long time. After eating this cereal, I have no cravings and don't even think about snacking anytime soon. It is tasty and affordable. This is my new breakfast :-)

I am a nutritionist and a big fan of this product and have ordered it several times, since I love how high protein and low carb it is. The taste tis great too. And, for the most part, the ingredients are clean other than the fact that the egg whites are clearly not organic. I love also that it is only sweetened by monk fruit, as that is a low glycemic and one of the most healthy sweetness. My one issue with this product is that it has contained mold in it a few times. There was a strong taste in some but not all of it. Peanut mold is not uncommon and can be dangerous. It is called Aflatoxin which is a potent human carcinogen. The fact that they do not send their product via FedEx but rather USPS meant that it also sat in my mailbox for a full day in Florida during the summer. However, even when it has arrived at my front door, I have experienced this issue, so they may want to reconsider the packaging, expiration dates, shipping speed/shipper or processing.

I cannot say enough good things about this tasty, crunchy granola. A bonus is that is it sweetened with monk fruit rather than cane sugar, honey, corn syrup, etc., or even stevia. While the health concerns surrounding the former are well known, stevia has been touted as a natural, low calorie, low carbohydrate natural sweetener substitute for sugar, all of which is true. Although the verdict is still out, some studies indicate that long-term use of stevia can lead to weight gain in some individuals. Apparently, this is attributable to the fact that given stevia’s sweetness, the body expects it to be sugar, which it is not. In order to resolve this confusion, the body breaks down and stores stevia as fat. Thus far, I have not seen any studies indicating this issue with monk fruit although I am not certain why this is the case given the seeming similarity between stevia and monk fruit. That said, the one caveat of this granola, which may not, however, be a cause for concern for some customers, is that only about 2/3rd or 3/4th of the bag is composed of actual peanut clusters. The remaining portion is composed of free-floating peanuts, lots of sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, and cluster crumbs. However, you may not notice this until you reach the bottom 3rd or 4th of the bag. My preference would be for the entire bag to be composed of clusters. However, that might require a level of microlevel quality control that would be too time-consuming.

True story...laying in bed scrolling on my phone and it’s 11:15 pm. I am on Amazon and see that my peanut butter granola has been delivered. I had checked the mailbox when I got home so that meant it was in the door! Excellent, because I was willing to get out of bed and go to the door vs. going outside to claim my order. I had read a lot of good reviews about this product I so was excited to try it. I poured 1/2 cup into a bowl, added almond milk and a packet of Truvia. Delicious! One of the best bowls of “cereal” I have ever had. Completely worth the violation of not eating before you go to bed. I still crave sweets so the Truvia packet was perfect. It was very good plain as well. Will definitely be purchasing again. P.S. Other reviewers complained about bigger pieces. I thought the pieces were fine. The cluster broke up very easily with a spoon.

It’s not bad but it’s a little bland for my taste. I’ve tried several brands and this one is just ok. Plus it’s a little pricey.

3 stars for the taste, 1 star for low-carb, 1 star for improved packaging. I like the vanilla cinnamon flavor but don't like the vanilla cluster. But the vanilla cinnamon comes in a bag that does not want to be opened and the cereal is in big chunks that are hard to break up. The vanilla cluster doesn't taste quite right, has an off flavor. This new peanut butter cluster flavor comes in a similar bag but it opens much easier. And the cereal seems to have a little more moisture which makes it easy to break up the chunks. Anyone who's been on a low-carb diet for long may appreciate a peanut butter flavored cereal that only has 2g net carbs.

the seal on the top of the pack is defective, the seal of the Zip closure was not completely glued to the sides, ergo defeating the purpose of the Zip Seal for freshness. This is defective packing, ziplock is faulty not proper adhesion to the sides at the top!!
