# What You Need:

→ Oats Base

01 - 1 cup rolled oats

02 - 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)

03 - 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

04 - 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

05 - 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)

06 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

# Steps:

01 - Combine rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, chia seeds if using, and vanilla extract in a blender; process until smooth and creamy.

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

03 - Transfer the blended mixture into two jars or bowls, cover, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours to allow oats to soften and flavors to meld.

# Expert Tips:

01 -

It's already made before you wake up, which means you can actually eat breakfast instead of just thinking about it.
The mango turns the whole thing into a smooth, creamy dream that feels nothing like regular oats.
You can prep a whole week's worth in about ten minutes of actual work time.

02 -

Don't skip the blending step thinking you'll just let whole oats soften overnight—they won't achieve that smooth, pudding-like texture without being broken down first, and that creaminess is the entire appeal.
Your mango matters enormously; I once grabbed what looked ripe but was actually mealy, and the whole batch tasted vaguely off until I learned to really squeeze and smell them before buying.
