One of the things I miss more in my keto life, is cereals, because there are no low-carb options, but don’t worry: Grandma Crunch is to the rescue!
For months I have been watching American people enjoying their keto cereals, that won’t ship in Europe.
Finally, the blessed day arrived even for us poor Europeans, and the miracle is made by Grandma Crunch, an English brand that started to produce their keto-friendly, plant-based cereal. And the good news is, they are shipping through Europe!
Are you kidding me? Keto Cereals in the Netherlands? Grandma, take my money, and gimme that crunch!
I am so excited to introduce Grandma Crunch! Enjoy the review of this new keto discovery.
The brand
Grandma Crunch, an English brand producing 4 flavors of cereals that are:
High protein
High Fibre
Low-carb
Keto-friendly
Vegan
Dairy-free
Gluten-free
Grain-free
Wheat free
Preservative-free
Well, with all these features, the only good thing missing is Beyonce.
The products
Grandma Crunch has 4 flavors of keto-friendly “cereals”. Please notice that Grandma Crunch cereals are not really real cereals. Real cereals cannot be keto-friendly. But the crunchiness, texture, and taste of Grandma Crunch are identical to cereals!
Every portion has 6 or 7 grams of carbs, depending on the flavor.
Cinnamon: 7 g net carb, 16 g protein.
Peanut Butter Brownie: 6 g net carb, 16 g protein.
Cocoa: 6 g net carb, 16 g protein.
Coconut: 6 g net carb, 15 g protein.
Strawberry: 6 g net carb, 15 g protein.
Salted Caramel:6 g net carb, 15 g protein.
A portion is 30 grams. In the beginning, I thought that would be a very small portion. Well, as soon as I measured 30 grams, I realized is really a big portion. these grams, and even less, are enough for the moments we just need some crunch.
The ingredients
The main ingredients of the cereals are Pea starch, coconut oil, coconut powder, soy, sucralose, salt.
There is no sugar, and the only sweetener is sucralose.
From their website: “Grandma Crunch is a complete protein source which is high in all the amino acids needed to maintain muscle health.
Features all the essential amino acids: Histidine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Methionine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Tryptophan, and Valine….and all the and non-essential amino acids: Alanine, Asparagine, Aspartate, Cysteine, Glutamate, Glutamine, Glycine, Proline, Serine, Tyrosine, Arginine, and Histidine.”.
Shipping
They ship throughout Europe. Yes, even in the Netherlands! Shipping costs may vary depending on the country.
For the Netherlands, the shipping rate is 3,95. For Italy is about 5 euros.
Prices
Grandma Crunch sells cereal boxes in bundles.
The price for 4 boxes is 31,45 Euro.You can buy 4 boxes of the same flavour. For the first time, I really recommend purchasing the variety box (one box of each flavor) to try all 6 flavors.
I honestly don’t find this price very expensive, as this is the only keto-friendly cereal we can find in Holland (and Europe).
Interesting info for people based in Holland: is possible to pay with Ideal.

My favorite Granda Crunch flavour
The same day I got these boxes, I sat with my fiancé and we try all the flavors. My favorite is Peanut Butter Brownie. Followed by Cocoa, Strawberry, Coconut, and Cinnamon.
The cinnamon flavor is very good but I placed it in the last position simply because, as an Italian, I never ate cinnamon-flavored cereals, and was kind of weird for me.
Indeed I saw online that people love this taste! And the fiancé’s favorite is cinnamon indeed.
How to consume Grandma Cereals
I tried these cereals a few times already, and so far I love them with milk (cashew or almond milk).
I also like to crunch these cereals without milk, during my Netflix nights.
I am looking forward to using them to rock some recipes, I have already a lot of ideas, so stay tuned!
My final opinion
I am hooked. I love these cereals. I missed cereals so much. I am very happy I can easily order Grandma Crunch, and I am so relieved that they ship in the Netherlands.
I find 6-7 net carbs still high for a portion of 30 grams. But, the trick is to not eat big portions. I am going to use these cereals in moderation, and for special recipes.
Maybe I won’t consume these cereals every day, but I will always keep them in my pantry. This is a top product, with keto-friendly ingredients and it will help my keto life so much.
I have nothing that respects for an emerging keto European brand. And buying these products is my way to sustain them. Thank you, Grandma Crunch keto cereals!
