Granola Butter Is Here to Dethrone Your Favorite Sandwich Spread

The brainchild of Ali Bonar and her wellness-focused food brand, Kween + Co., granola butter is exactly what it sounds like: You can smear it on toast, drizzle it over morning oats, or stir it into yogurt. But Bonar is quick to differentiate her product from other nut butters.
“The low-carb, keto, and paleo crazes are causing consumers to eat almond-based everything, which can be hard to digest,” she says. “I wanted a nutritious, nut-free spread that was still packed with healthy fats and low in sugar.”
The case for granola as a health food is debatable—watch out for high calories—but the butter’s good-for-you ingredients list includes gluten-free oats, flaxseeds, and olive oil. (There’s even a version pumped up with collagen peptides.)
We’ll let the experts decide if it’s nutritious, but it sure is delicious.
