Our Ingredients
I started making granola because I couldn't find anything at the store with any substantive nutrition…
I’m Brian Kramp — husband, father, Anchorage firefighter, Alaskan adventurer… and the baker behind Granola Borealis.
Our granola recipe was born from my desire to find a breakfast alternative to eggs that had sufficient staying power for a day in the mountains or on the trail. Eggs are great, but not every single day — and oatmeal has always disappointed me and left me hungry.
I turned to granola to solve my breakfast woes, but everything at the store was too sweet or lacked substantive nutrition.
Finally, a ski patrol friend gave me her homemade granola recipe, and I started experimenting.
I enlisted the expertise of my wife Rebekah, a registered dietitian, and together we created our original recipe — organic rolled oats for fiber, dense with healthy fats from nuts, with a light toasted flavor from shredded coconut.
We started sharing our granola with our friends, who encouraged us to sell it at the farmer’s market. We set up shop at the Midtown Farmer’s Market in the Summer of 2023 — and it was a hit.
We’ve now transitioned from our home kitchen into Anchorage Commercial Kitchen in Spenard. We’re excited to share our small-batch granola with more of the community. Thank you for your support!
P.S. — Today, our favorite breakfast is our granola on top of Greek yogurt with fresh berries or bananas. SO good!
