Trader Joe’s has introduced a new granola inspired by a Michelin-starred restaurant. The product development draws from diverse culinary influences, including family recipes and trendy flavors.
The new Cherry Pistachio Pecan Granola is not a typical product; it is inspired by a signature granola served at Eleven Madison Park, a three-Michelin-star restaurant in New York City. The dish is so popular that The New York Times published a copycat recipe.
A Trader Joe’s product developer was inspired after enjoying the granola at the restaurant, leading to the creation of this product. The granola features a blend of rolled oats, Montmorency cherries, pistachios, pecans, pumpkin seeds, and coconut flakes, lightly sweetened with brown sugar, maple syrup, and extra virgin olive oil.
“Perfect sweet and salty balance. Hard to not finish a whole bag.”
