Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1/2 cup mango purée (fresh or frozen and thawed)
- 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
Toppings
- Diced fresh mango
- Chopped pistachios
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl or jar, combine rolled oats, Greek yogurt, milk, mango purée, honey or maple syrup, ground cardamom, a pinch of salt, and chia seeds if using. Stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well mixed.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, allowing the oats to absorb the liquids and soften into a creamy consistency.
- Prepare to Serve: In the morning, stir the oats well. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of milk to loosen the texture to your preference.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Top the prepared oats with fresh diced mango and chopped pistachios right before serving for added texture and flavor.
Notes
- For a vegan version, substitute plain Greek yogurt and dairy milk with plant-based yogurt and milk alternatives.
- Adjust sweetness depending on the ripeness and natural sweetness of your mango purée.
- For an extra smooth, lassi-inspired texture, blend the mango purée with the yogurt before combining with the other ingredients.
- Chia seeds are optional but add extra fiber and a slight thickening effect.
