Strawberry Oatmeal Breakfast Bars
Every time I walk around the Farmer’s Market or the grocery store I see all these beautiful berries just screaming out to be taken home and turned into something delicious. Last week I made a Healthy Lemon Blueberry Bread, so I got my blueberry fix. This week the bright red strawberries were calling out to me, and since the kids are out of school, I am always looking for easy breakfast options.
And these Strawberry Oatmeal Bars are just that. Sweet, delicious, easy to make, and they make for the perfect breakfast, or you can have them as a on-the-go-snack, or feel free to warm up a piece and serve it with vanilla ice cream 🙂
Prep is easy for these Strawberry Oatmeal Bars, just dice up your beautiful strawberries and mix together the remaining ingredients and get to layering.
The ingredients you will need to make my strawberry oatmeal breakfast bars are:
Flour
Sugar
Fresh strawberries, I recommend Florida strawberries when they are in-season.
Rolled oats
Unsalted butter
Milled flax seeds
Cornstarch
Cinnamon
Salt
Brown sugar
Vanilla
Then you toss your strawberry oatmeal bars in the oven and be prepared for all the yummy scents to flood your kitchen.
Can you use frozen strawberries to make these oatmeal bars?
I definitely recommend using fresh strawberries. You can use frozen strawberries, but allow them to thaw first and discard any liquid.
Can you use other berries instead of strawberries?
Absolutely! Feel free to experiment and use whatever fresh berries are in season.
How do you store strawberry oatmeal bars?
You can store your homemade oatmeal bars in the refrigerator for up to 5 days by layering the bars between waxed paper in an airtight container.
Can you freeze strawberry oatmeal bars?
Sure can! You can freeze Strawberry Oatmeal Bars for up to 3 months.
If you have leftover strawberries, check out these strawberry smoothie recipes. Smoothies are a great way to start your day off healthy…and filling!
Or maybe you want to make a strawberry dessert…I got you covered there too! These Strawberry Milk popsicles are delicious and if you want a splurge, I strongly recommend trying my Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cheesecake.
Want to add more strawberries to your meal plan? Not just breakfast or dessert? This Salmon and Strawberry salad is a favorite.

Wow do these Strawberry Oatmeal Breakfast Bars look amazing! I love how they came out, and these are a must! A wonderful way to use strawberries!
I just love strawberries – be sure to let me know if you make them at home 🙂
So…these were okay-ish. My kids liked them, but my husband and I didn’t really care for it. It seemed that the strawberry filling was too thin so it became tough; the recipe also had too much flour so it was very powdery.
Thank you for your feedback! What would you have changed? I would love to tweak the recipe and give it a try!
