Metropolitan Bakery, the Philadelphia artisan bakery using old-world techniques and a long-slow-cool rise, has introduced two new flavors of their whole grain granola--Coffee Chocolate Chip and Pomegranate Cinnamon. Metropolitan's Coffee Chocolate Chip Granola is made with dark chocolate, coffee trablit, and crunchy almonds, while the nut-free Pomegranate Cinnamon Granola features pomegranate molasses, brown cinnamon, cardamom and the antioxidant power of goji berries, blueberries and cranberries. The new flavors were created by Metropolitan Bakery head baker and co-owner James Barrett, who first created Metropolitan's much-loved original granola in 1993. All whole grain granola (http://www. metropolitanbakery. com/store. html) flavors are available at our online store or by calling 1.877.41.BREAD for participating retailers.

Each batch of Metropolitan granola is mixed and folded by hand, and baked in a thin layer on low heat to ensure crispness. Metropolitan's granola is an excellent source of complex carbohydrates, protein and healthy fats (DHA), with no cholesterol or trans fat. It's great alone or with milk, yogurt or ice cream. The two-ounce packages also make great wedding and party favors.
