Why we use date syrup

At Naturally Granola, date syrup is our go-to natural sweetener. Here’s why we love it — and why you will too:

  1. Natural and delicious
    Date syrup is made from pure dates, offering a sweet, natural flavor without any refined sugars.

  2. Low glycemic index
    Unlike refined sugar, date syrup has a low glycemic index, meaning it won’t spike your blood sugar levels quickly. Great news for those managing blood sugar or just aiming for balanced energy.

  3. Nutrient-rich
    Packed with vitamins and minerals like vitamin B6, iron, and potassium, date syrup contributes to a healthy diet and supports your body’s functions.

  4. Fiber-friendly
    It contains fiber that helps keep your digestion smooth and may reduce the risk of some diseases.

  5. Vegan & gluten-free
    Date syrup fits perfectly in vegan and gluten-free diets, making it a versatile and wholesome choice.

Try our granola, lightly sweetened with date syrup, and taste for yourself why we’re so excited about this natural ingredient!
