Ingredients (11)

• Organic whole grain oats (safe) — Whole grain, delivers fiber and slow-digesting carbs.
• Organic whole grain wheat (safe) — Whole grain, adds fiber and structure to the flakes.
• Organic rice (safe) — Refined grain for crunch; benign but less nutrient-dense than whole grains.
• organic almonds (safe) — Real nuts adding healthy fats, protein and vitamin E.
• Organic dried blueberries (safe) — Real fruit; some natural sugar but brings antioxidants and flavor.
• Organic date powder (safe) — Whole-food sweetener; sugar comes with fiber, so no 'added sugar'.
• organic sunflower oil (moderate) — A refined vegetable oil; used sparingly here as a baking fat.
• organic coconut oil (moderate) — Refined oil, high in saturated fat but present in small amounts.
• Sea Salt (safe) — Small amount for flavor balance.
• Natural flavor (moderate) — Undisclosed flavor compounds; vague catch-all term.
• Vitamin E (Mixed Tocopherols) (safe) — Natural antioxidant added to preserve freshness rather than a synthetic preservative. A clean choice.
