FJ Tanker Topper Crunchy Muesli, Gluten Free Currant & Coconut KN – Oat Coconut

|
Organic Wholemeal Spelt Flour
(say goodbye to the common overly refined and modified white wheat flour) |
This ancient grain is full of nutrition. It is often tolerated better than it’s cousin ‘wheat’ because of it’s shorter and more brittle gluten strand. It has not had the modification that today’s wheat has had. Super high in B vitamins, fibre and it also has a good amount of protein. Spelt is a beauty. It is taste just delicious.
|
KN – Oat Coconut, Choc Goji, Raw Cacao & Macadamia |
|
Australian Oats |
An oldie but a goodie. The beautiful oat has plenty to offer. Not only it’s galactagogue (milk enhancing) properties but it is also naturally high in iron and fibre. It is also has a warming nourishing quality that everyone can benefit from.

Organic Buckwheat flour
(We chose to pick quality healthy promoting ingredient in our products just like buckwheat and quinoa) |
This seed is awesome. A high quality and easily digestible source of protein. Also high in the bioflavanoid rutin which is why I love it for mama’s. Rutin helps to improve the structure and integrity of connective tissue. |
|
|
Teff Flour
And again… more functional superfood goodness! |
A superb superfood originally from Ethiopia however we get ours from a family farm just across the border in the Southern Riverina area of NSW. A small place called Wakool. One of the first Aussie growers of Teff. High in protein, iron and calcium. This gluten free seed is a gem.

Brewer’s yeast
We add stuff that does you good! |
Packed with B vitamins for energy, chromium for blood sugar balancing and iron. Brewer’s yeast is awesome. In addition to this it has been use for hundreds of years to help promote lactation.

We only use quality, nutrient dense sweeteners - Organic Coconut Sugar (All products), Maple Syrup (Tanker Topper Lactation Cookies Range) and Honey (Kooka’s Natural range).

You will not see ‘raw cane sugar’, refined sugars, agave, stevia or any other artificial sweeteners in our products.
