Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup canned light coconut milk (or any coconut beverage)
- ½ cup diced fresh or frozen mango (thawed)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional, for thickening)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (optional)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Toppings (optional)

Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a jar or airtight container, combine rolled oats, coconut milk, mango, chia seeds (if using), maple syrup or honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to mix all ingredients thoroughly.
- Chill Overnight: Cover the jar or container and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and flavors.
- Stir and Adjust Consistency: In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of milk or coconut beverage to loosen it to your desired consistency.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Top with extra diced mango, shredded coconut, chopped nuts, or granola for added texture and flavor. Serve chilled and enjoy your tropical breakfast.
Notes
- For extra creaminess, blend the mango and coconut milk before mixing with the oats.
- Use plant-based yogurt for added texture or protein.
- These oats will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.
