occasional granola review: *new* Nature Valley -- Coconut & Almond
I wrote this so long ago that I've almost finished the bag! 😄 Let's see if this jogs my memory.
I opened the bag and saw clusters first; that was a good thing. Once I starting pouring, however, eh...not so much. More loose oats. But there were sizable coconut flakes (Nature Valley calls them "shavings"), which I prefer to the shredded I always end up using in my granola recipes.
The flavor is also strongly of coconut with a bit of honey-sweetness. I didn't leave myself any notes regarding the almonds, so there must not have been any characteristics that stood out. Coconut and almond is still a great combination, though.
