I am a big fan of hemp.
Hemp seeds are highly nutritious and are an excellent replacement for those who can’t have wheat. I recently came across these hemp granola bars in a grocery store I visit infrequently. The first thing I did was to check the label – and yes, they passed the allergen-free test.
The Nature’s Path Sunny Hemp granola bars are made with oats, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, hemp seeds and raisins. The bars are high in Omega-3 content. They do contain soy oil.
I should note that while Nature’s Path does have some products which are certified as gluten-free, this is not one of them. Due to the oats, Nature’s Path granola bars are not gluten-free.
The bars are very reminiscent of the traditional granola bar or trail bar – chewy, but not too crunchy. They are easy to take with you on road trips, and can make a nice breakfast bar or snack treat. Sweetened with cane juice and syrup, they are just sweet enough.
Try keeping a few in the refrigerator for a cool summer snack.
Nature’s Path also makes a chocolate (non-dairy) version of this bar, which I have yet to try. Have you tried them yet? What do you think?
