The inspiration for these captivating cookies came from traditional Italian biscotti and a more modern take on granola bars. What TJ's created from that inspiration unintentionally became an early trend setter in the “breakfast cookie” category. If you haven’t yet partaken in TJ's Five Seed Almond Bars, you definitely should, whether it’s for breakfast, lunch, a snack, dinner, or even a dessert course with a glass of red wine.

Five Seed Almond Bars do indeed boast five seeds – flax, sesame, poppy, sunflower, and pumpkin – and almonds, yet their name doesn’t tell their whole story. Their recipe also includes flour and an assortment of flavourful ingredients like oats, brown & white sugar, eggs, honey, and the almonds are seasoned with cinnamon, cloves, and vanilla. Baked to a consistency that’s ideally situated between chewy and crunchy, they taste wholesome, like you baked them yourself. And they are wholesome, real food, with coffee or tea, crumbled into yogourt with fresh berries, or handheld, while you’re busy doing all the other things you need to do in the morning.
