Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 cups plain yogurt (regular or coconut yogurt)
- 1 cup milk (regular or plant-based)
- 1/2 cup mango, pureed
Sweeteners and Flavors:
- 1/4 cup honey (or maple syrup)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
Optional Toppings:
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- Extra mango for garnish
Instructions
- Craft a creamy base by whisking together rolled oats, yogurt, milk, honey, vanilla extract, and ground cardamom in a spacious mixing vessel until thoroughly harmonized.
- Transform fresh mango into a silky, vibrant puree using a blender or immersion blender, ensuring a smooth and consistent texture.
- Gently fold the mango puree into the oat mixture, creating a marbled, golden-hued blend that distributes the fruity essence evenly throughout.
- Allocate the luscious mixture into individual sealed containers, ensuring equal portions that will develop rich flavors during refrigeration.
- Allow the oats to rest and absorb liquid overnight, ideally for 8-10 hours, which will soften the grains and intensify the aromatic profile.
- When ready to enjoy, unveil the chilled oats and embellish with additional diced mango and a sprinkle of chia seeds for textural contrast and nutritional boost.
Notes
- Swap dairy yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt for a vegan-friendly version that maintains creamy texture.
- Adjust honey with maple syrup or agave for alternative sweeteners that complement the mango’s natural sweetness.
- Boost protein content by adding a scoop of vanilla protein powder or Greek yogurt for extra nutrition and thickness.
- Experiment with spice levels by increasing or decreasing cardamom to suit personal taste preferences without overwhelming the mango flavor.
