Are these muesli grains suitable for making homemade granola?

Can you tell me what the grains are in this muesli, and whether they are suitable to turn into granola? I would be mixing with spread or oil, sugar, nuts etc and baking in the oven.

They don’t look quite like other muesli’s that I’ve baked, so wondering whether it’s a ‘proper’ muesli. Thanks.

What does the ingredients list say?

Oh that’s too easy 😁.

Unfortunately they were decanted into cereal tubs, packaging thrown away.

Looks like bran flakes, rolled oats to me. They will be fine with granola. I started making mine with coconut oil. Yum

Much too small to be bran flakes, I wish I’d photographed them on a spoon or something now.

Anyway, I’ll turn them into granola, everyone seems to be saying go for it, thank you!

Wheat flakes are most likely, if you don't have a list to check against. Might be rye flakes. Definitely grain flakes of some description so they should be fine in granola. .
