02 - Add diced mango to the blender and blend again until fully incorporated and smooth.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It's genuinely hands-off—blend it once, sleep, and breakfast appears in the morning like a small gift to yourself.
  • The texture is impossibly creamy without being heavy, thanks to the yogurt and blended oats doing all the work.
  • Mango transforms basic oats into something that tastes like a tropical vacation in a bowl.
02 -
  • Don't skip the blending step thinking you can just mix everything together—the blender is what makes this creamy instead of gritty, and that's the entire point.
  • Mango ripeness changes everything; if yours isn't genuinely soft and fragrant, the whole bowl will taste muted instead of bright.
  • These keep for about 2 days in the fridge, which is when they're best—after that the oats start absorbing more liquid and getting mushier than most people enjoy.
03 -
  • Freeze extra mango when it's in season and use it in these throughout the year—frozen mango actually blends smoother than fresh and thaws quickly in the mixture.
  • If you like these slightly thicker, use a bit less milk and add an extra spoonful of yogurt; if you prefer them thinner, add milk a splash at a time until the texture feels right to you.
