Healthy ingredients
Always looking for ways to nourish the body and the mind, we didn’t only chose the ingredients for their amazing taste but specifically for their incredible health benefits. On the back side of our product you can find a detailed explanation of all ingredients and why they are considered healthy. Our granola is rich in fibers, healthy fats, packed with antioxidants and contains high levels of minerals.
Refined sugar free
Sugar is a carbohydrate that the body converts into glucose and uses for energy. But the effect on the body and your overall health depends on the type of sugar you’re eating. The body breaks down refined sugar rapidly, causing insulin and blood sugar levels to skyrocket, whilst natural sources of sugar are digested slower and help you feel full longer. It also helps to keep your metabolism stable.
Gluten free
Gluten is the common name for proteins found in wheat, rye, barley and triticale. Gluten is important to the texture of breads, pasta, and cakes, but provides no essential nutrients. Especially for people with celiac disease, because it triggers an immune reaction in the digestive system. But most people that switch to a gluten-free diet of meat, fruit, nuts and vegetables might feel better because they aren’t eating processed foods at all.
Ardash Nelson x Benji's Amsterdam
In 2016 Benji’s opened its doors and transformed a beautiful corner building in Amsterdam into an urban jungle. Inspired by the tropical spheres of Bali, the goal was to create a space where people can escape the high paced city life and find themselves in a peaceful green oasis combined with an industrial feel. A place where both locals and tourists can imagine themselves on holiday, surrounded by tropical plants while they enjoy fresh, sustainable and colorful dishes with a modern twist.
Right from the beginning a very succesful collaboration started with Ardash Nelson. With years of experience in baking and creating awesome new recipes for bakeries, restaurants and other businesses, Ardash developed a healthy granola recipe without any grains especially for Benji’s which became a great success. Now, after all this time, we finally decided to elevate our collaboration and give everyone at home the opportunity to create their own unique and healthy granola recipes.
