Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 1 1/2-2 cups milk (depending on desired thickness)
- 1 cup fresh diced mango (165 grams, ripe for best flavor)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (divided)
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats (100 grams)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Optional Toppings
- Diced mango
- Coconut flakes or shreds
- Cinnamon
Instructions
- Make mango milk: Combine the milk, diced mango, and vanilla extract in a blender. Blend on high speed for 30-60 seconds until smooth and well combined, creating a fragrant mango-infused milk base.
- Prepare overnight oats: In two medium jars, add 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon each. Pour the prepared mango milk evenly over the oat mixture in each jar. Stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well mixed.
- Chill and thicken: Seal the jars with lids and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours or preferably overnight. This resting time allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a creamy texture.
- Serve and garnish: Enjoy the overnight oats directly from the jars. Top with your choice of additional diced mango, coconut flakes, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use ripe mangoes for the best natural sweetness and flavor.
- Adjust milk quantity based on preferred thickness of oats.
- Overnight oats can be refrigerated up to 2 days for convenience.
- Optional toppings like coconut flakes or additional fruit add texture and taste.
