‘Tis the Season for Strawberry Oat Bars!

Sooo it’s a ‘lil past midnight here and I just finished up a very exciting project that I’m excited to announce very SOON! As I’m snacking on all the berries in season, I have to wonder: is anyone else as excited for strawberry season to finally be here??

I mean, to think of all the fun recipes we can make with strawberries! I’M SO READY.

Anyways, Evan had bought a GIANT pack of strawberries from the store the other day. They were looking like they were at their peak freshness, and I didn’t want to miss out on this prime moment! So of course, what better way to celebrate the start of the strawberry season by sharing a super easy & super delicious Fresh Strawberry Oat Bars recipe?

Seriously, my friend Hope made a variation of these, and I was definitely inspired to bake up some strawberry bars the next day! Either way, make these ahead of time for a quick and easy snack, breakfast, or even dessert! You won’t regret it!
