Brand: Trader Joe's | Product: Just the Clusters Maple Pecan Granola | Category: Granola | Net Qty: 16 oz (1 lb / 454g) | Serving: 2/3 cup (64g), ~7 servings | Allergens: Contains tree nuts (pecans) | Availability: Delivered to Your Door Across the U.S. and Canada via HIOOL GOODS
About This Granola
The name is the concept: just the clusters. No loose oat crumbs, no powdery residue at the bottom of the bag — only large, solid baked oat-pecan clusters with maple syrup and honey flavor throughout. The packaging describes them as “captivatingly crunchy, satisfyingly sweet clusters of rolled oats and pecans with notes of maple syrup and honey.”
The clusters are thick enough to hold their shape in milk or yogurt without going soggy quickly, and sturdy enough to fold into brownie batter or muffin mix as a baking add-in — a use the packaging specifically calls out. At 290 calories per 2/3 cup (64g) full serving or 150 calories per 1/3 cup (32g) snack portion, the 16 oz resealable stand-up pouch gives about 7 full servings.
Key ingredients include rolled oats, cane sugar, expeller-pressed canola oil, pecans, maple syrup, and honey. Contains tree nuts (pecans). No gluten-free certification is visible on the packaging.
Trader Joe’s does not sell products online. HIOOL GOODS is an independent reseller that sources authentic Trader Joe’s products from U.S. stores and delivers to customers across the U.S. and Canada.
