I live in a non-Muslim country where it is hard to find poor believers to feed. There are Islamic food banks, but they only accept cash. Can I pay them in cash to fulfil my Kaffara for a broken oath?

Feeding Kaffara must be given as food to poor believer and not cash. If you don't have access to ooor believers where you live, you can send the Kaffara to other places where poor believers can be fed.
Food banks usually give food to public with out the condition of faith, that is why, it is not allowed to give Kaffara to them, but you can give them general charity or donation for feeding general public.
