Banana Berry Bites

Ingredients

• 1 small banana
• 10 Strawberries
• 1.5 cups oats

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees
• Use a blend to blend the banana and strawberries (or mash well)
• Add your oats into the fruit mix. Mix well.
• Press into our Dainty Dozen Baking trays (or mini muffin trays) and bake for 18-20 minutes.

Storage Instructions

Store the cooled bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. They're a great grab-and-go option straight from the freezer for lunchboxes — just allow time to thaw, or warm gently before serving.

Nutrition Notes

With just three whole-food ingredients, these bites are naturally sweetened by banana and strawberries and provide slow-release energy and fibre from the oats — a simple, wholesome snack with nothing added.

Parent Tip

Because they contain none of the top 9 allergens, these are a handy lunchbox option for daycare and school where allergy-aware food is needed. For younger bubs, serve with yoghurt or a little milk to soften.

Frequently Asked Questions

From what age are these suitable?

These are suitable from around 8 months. For younger bubs, serve with yoghurt or a liquid to soften the texture.

Do they contain allergens?

They contain none of the 9 main allergens. The only consideration is coeliac disease, as oats can contain gluten — choose certified gluten-free oats if needed.

Can I use different fruit?

Yes — mashed blueberries, raspberries or extra banana all work well in place of the strawberries.

Can I freeze them?

Absolutely. They freeze well for up to 3 months and thaw quickly, perfect for lunchboxes and snacks on the go.
