Juicy strawberry with banana

Strawberry Banana Oatmeal Bites

It’s a great option for making ahead for busy mornings: a) on the weekend to enjoy a couple and freeze the rest b) make the night before.

It’s also a great example of creativity:

  1. Use 1 cup of whole-wheat flour and 1 cup oats instead of 2 cups oats
  2. Substitute another fruit for the strawberries. In the midst of making them one morning I realized someone had eaten all the strawberries, yikes! No worries, I chopped up sliced pineapple I had on hand.
  3. Use frozen strawberries (or other berries).
  4. With or without nuts of any kind. I discovered pistachio and strawberry is a delightful combination!
