Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned oats)
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk (canned)
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for vegan)
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 large mango, diced (about 1 cup)
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon lime zest (optional)

Instructions

  1. Add 1 cup rolled oats to a medium mixing bowl.
  2. Pour in 1 cup full-fat coconut milk and stir well to coat the oats.
  3. Mix in 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt until fully combined.
  4. Sprinkle in 2 tablespoons chia seeds and stir to distribute evenly.
  5. Drizzle in 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup; taste and adjust sweetness.
  6. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/2 teaspoon lime zest, if using.
  7. Add 2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut and mix until blended.
  8. Dice 1 large mango. Divide half the mango cubes between jars or containers.
  9. Spoon oat mixture on top of mango, then add remaining mango cubes. Press lightly.
  10. Cover jars tightly and refrigerate overnight (at least 6 hours, ideally 8-12 hours).
  11. In the morning, stir each jar. If too thick, add a splash of coconut milk; if too runny, let sit another hour.
  12. Top with extra mango, banana slices, toasted coconut flakes, or nuts as desired. Serve cold.

Notes

Use certified gluten-free oats if needed. For vegan, use coconut yogurt and maple syrup. If using frozen mango, thaw and drain before adding. Adjust sweetness to taste. For thicker oats, use less coconut milk or more chia seeds. Prep in individual jars for grab-and-go convenience. Oats keep up to 4 days in the fridge.
