So, it’s not a huge surprise that Cinnamon Toast Crunch is one of the most popular breakfast cereals out there. But exactly how much sugar does Cinnamon Toast Crunch and the equivalent brands contain? And more importantly, what are the lowest sugar cinnamon toast crunch options?

I also managed to find a low-sugar Cinnamon Toast Crunch alternative as well as a sugar-free (yes, you read that correctly – sugar-free) Cinnamon Toast Crunch alternative.

 So, let’s dig in – what are the lowest-sugar Cinnamon Toast Crunch Options?

How Much Sugar is in Cinnamon Toast Crunch?

As a general rule, a serving of Cinnamon Toast Crunch contains 12g of total sugar whereas most Cinnamon Toast equivalents contain 14g of sugar per serving. There are sugar-free Cinnamon Toast Crunch alternatives available that are sweetened instead with stevia and monk fruit.

Interestingly in the post I wrote on the sugar content of Cheerios, I was super impressed to find out that Great Value’s equivalent of Cheerios is sugar-free. However, it is not quite the same situation with their Cinnamon Crunch Cereal option. Great Value Cinnamon Crunch comes in at 14g of total sugar per serving.

3. Millville Cinnamon Crunch Squares – 14g of Total Sugar

Next up on this list is a brand I have already talked about here at Low Sugar Snax and that is Millville.

Wow so far in this post I have established that 7 of the big Cinnamon Toast Crunch’s equivalents contain 14g of total sugar per serving. Now how about the actual OG – you know Cinnamon Toast Crunch itself?

9. Good & Gather Organic Cinnamon Squares – 12g of Total Sugar

Good & Gather Organic Cinnamon Squares was the only other Cinnamon Toast Crunch equivalent that I came across that has the same sugar content as the original Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

10. Barbara’s Puffins Cinnamon Cereal – 6g of Total Sugar

This next entry of cinnamon cereal that I discovered actually has half the sugar content of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Yes – half. As in 6g of sugar per serving.

What’s the name of this cinnamon cereal? It is Barbara’s Puffins Cinnamon Cereal.

Now, full disclosure, this cereal isn’t exactly the same as Cinnamon Toast Crunch (it’s a little ‘puffier’ than Cinnamon Toast Crunch – I mean the clue is in the name). But this cereal is square-shaped and cinnamon flavored so in my opinion is a good enough alternative. Especially at 6g of sugar.

You can check out Barbara’s Puffin Cinnamon Cereal on Amazon here.

11. Catalina Crunch Cinnamon Toast Keto Cereal – 0g of Total Sugar

If you got excited about the 6g of sugar option above, wait until you hear about the final entry on this list. Catalina Crunch Cinnamon Toast Keto Cereal contains 0g of total sugar per serving! Yes, that is right 0g of sugar.

Instead of being sweetened with sugar, Catalina Crunch is sweetened with stevia and monk fruit. It’s also made with pea protein making it a higher protein option for the win-win.

You can try it for yourself on Amazon here.
