Breakfast Cereals & Granolas

Breakfast cereals, granola, muesli and porridge, including organic options, from Just Natural, Dorset Cereals, Rude Health, Amisa and Biona.

Most of the range is dairy-free by nature – oats, spelt and buckwheat flakes contain no milk. Baked granolas are the main exception to watch out for, as they can sometimes contain dairy coatings or honey, so the label is worth a look if you're avoiding animal products.

Gluten-free options run right through the selection. While naturally gluten-free, ordinary oats are often milled alongside wheat. Oats sold as gluten-free are milled separately, which allows for the official label. Corn flakes, puffed rice and quinoa flakes are also gluten-free by ingredient.

As a rule of thumb, muesli is meant to be eaten as it comes or soaked, whereas granola is baked with oil and a sweetener, so it clusters and tastes sweeter.
