These naturally sweet, no-bake strawberry bliss bites are a fun and wholesome treat—perfect for lunchboxes, post-workout snacks, or a fruity dessert. Made with creamy cashews, ripe bananas, and rolled oats, they come together quickly in a food processor, and the coating made from crushed freeze-dried strawberries tastes fantastic! They are best eaten the day they are made, but you can store them uncoated for up to a day. Just roll, chill, and enjoy!
Gluten-free: These are gluten-free if you use certified gluten-free rolled oats.
