Better Than Bobo’s Strawberry Stuff’d Oat Bite Recipe

Ingredients

• 2–3 ripe bananas, mashed
• 2 eggs, beaten
• ¼ cup oil (vegetable, coconut, or avocado oil)
• ½ cup almond or peanut butter
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• ¼ cup ground flaxseed
• 1½ cups oat flour (blend oats in vitamix until powder)
• 2 tsp baking powder
• Strawberry jam (to your liking)

Inspired by Bobo’s Strawbetty Stuff’d Oat Bites—but homemade, nourishing, and free of additives. Also adapted from Love & Other Spices’ Banana Oat Muffins.

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 400°F and line a mini muffin tin or small baking dish with parchment.
• In a bowl, mash bananas until smooth.
• Whisk in eggs, oil, nut butter, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt.
• Add in flaxseed, oat flour, and baking powder, mixing until just combined.
• Scoop about 1–2 tablespoons of batter into each muffin cup.
• Add a small spoonful of strawberry jam to the center.
• Top with another spoonful of batter to cover the jam.
• Bake for 6 minutes and then adjust the temperature to 350°F and cook for another 25 minutes or until lightly golden and set.
• Let cool before removing from the pan.
• Place in ziplock or glass container to freeze.

Why These Are Better Than Bobo’s

Most packaged oat bites—even the “healthy” ones—come with a long ingredient list. Brands like Bobo’s, known for their cozy Colorado roots and hearty oat bars, make delicious grab-and-go snacks, but they still include extras like natural flavors, gums, highly processed oils, and long shelf-life preservatives.

That’s why making your own is such a game-changer. Sure it’s easy to grab a box of pre-made snacks from the store, but batch making healthy snacks and freezing them is a great way to optimize your nutrients and time.

I hope you enjoy these homemade strawberry oat bites. They are fresh, real-ingredient based, kid-approved, and completely customizable to your family’s preferences. And honestly… they taste warmer, softer, and so much yummier than the original.
