Protein-Ola

Start your morning with a big bowl of crunchy granola goodness. (Actually this would be an ideal snack at any time of day)!

Most granola products on the market tend to be high in sugar and calories. Our Protein-Ola is high protein, low sugar and made from high quality ingredients.

High Protein Granola

Our Protein-Ola has ~29g of protein in each serving with only ~1.5g of sugars, plus fibre and quality fats from nuts, seeds, and hemp hearts.

Add a splash of water or milk, or berries and yoghurt for a crunchy high protein breakfast or snack. Can even be eaten straight from the pack!

Ingredients

What makes Protein-Ola so brilliant is that we don’t add any unnecessary fillers. The main ingredient is pea protein isolate which is ideal because our pea protein has a complete amino acid profile.

Unlike some plant based options, our pea protein isolate has a complete amino acid profile. We used this in order to boost the protein content and ensure that vegans and vegetarians can enjoy this product too.

Faba protein is also included in the mix in order to keep the protein content high and give the best texture.

Protein-Ola contains puffed quinoa. This ingredient is responsible in part for the crunchy texture and is packed with nutrients like magnesium, calcium, iron and zinc. Quinoa is also a great source of fibre.

This means Protein-Ola will keep you regular and you’ll feel full after eating it.

Protein-Ola derives more crunch and flavour from pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, hemp hearts, hazelnuts, cashews, raspberries and cinnamon. 

These ingredients are undeniably nutritious. They are a tasty combination of healthy fats, vitamins and minerals. We really tried to pack as many benefits into this product as possible.

Considering the amount of junk food available on the market, Protein-Ola is a refreshing contrast.

Best Granola NZ

Granola has a reputation as being a ‘health food’. It is often marketed as a great breakfast option and can have beneficial effects on cholesterol.

Although many granola products contain fibre and heart healthy nuts, they also tend to be high in sugar and calories. This means granola may not be the best option for those with weight loss goals.

Additionally the lack of protein in typical granola products means that those with muscle gain goals may not reap much benefit from eating it.

Protein-Ola is superior because it has all the benefits of normal granola but comes with much more protein and less sugar. One 80g serving contains 29.1g of protein which is comparable to a tin of tuna.

It has only 1.5g of sugar per 100g meaning it is the perfect option for diabetics who are mindful of blood glucose levels.

Finally with only 334 calories per serve, Protein-Ola is lower in calories than most other granolas available in the supermarket.

We hate to brag, but this really is a versatile product that is suitable for everyone.

Protein Granola Recipe

At NZProtein we love versatile products. Protein-Ola can be eaten like cereal with a splash of any liquid like water (if you’re in a calorie deficit) or milk (if you have a few more calories to spare).

You could combine it with yoghurt to get a more potent protein hit. Or, if you’re too excited to wait, you can eat it straight from the bag.

Be careful though, once you start munching it can be hard to stop!

For those who love baking, Protein-Ola is easy to include in tasty recipes.

Blending it up will give you a high protein crumb. You can use this in cheesecake bases, trail mix or slices. We like to create granola muffins and high protein caramel slices.

Mixing Protein-Ola with our low calorie sauce is a winning combination. These two ingredients alone make a biscuit-y base that can be topped with whatever your heart desires.

If you do decide to bake with Protein-Ola, be sure to send us photos of your creations.
