Tool Requirements

You’ll need just a few basic items to whip up these tasty overnight oats. Grab a medium-sized mason jar or container with a tight-fitting lid. This will hold your oats as they soak and soften overnight.

A measuring cup comes in handy for portioning out the right amounts of oats, coconut milk, and other ingredients. Don’t forget a spoon for mixing everything together.

If you’re using fresh mango, you’ll want a sharp knife and cutting board to dice it up. For frozen mango, no extra tools are needed – just pop open the bag.

That’s pretty much it! The beauty of overnight oats is how simple they are to make. You don’t need any fancy equipment or kitchen gadgets. Just mix, refrigerate, and enjoy your creamy vegan breakfast in the morning.

Preparing The Ingredients

You’ll need a few key items to make these overnight oats with coconut milk. Grab a ripe mango, rolled oats, and a can of coconut milk from your pantry. Don’t forget chia seeds for extra nutrition and texture.

Measure out 1/2 cup of oats per serving into a jar or container. Add 2 tablespoons of chia seeds. Pour in 3/4 cup of coconut milk and stir well.

Peel and chop the mango into small cubes. Set aside about 1/4 cup per serving to add on top later. Mix the rest into your oat mixture.

For sweetness, you can add a drizzle of maple syrup or agave nectar. A pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract will boost the flavor too.

Make sure to have a lid or cover for your container. You’ll need it to store the oats in the fridge overnight.

With these simple ingredients ready, you’re all set to assemble your tasty breakfast treat.

Variations To Try

Want to shake up your mango overnight oats? Try these tasty twists!

• Swap the mango for pineapple chunks. You’ll get a tropical vibe that pairs great with the coconut milk.
• Mix in some chia seeds. They add a nice crunch and boost the protein content.
• Sprinkle on toasted coconut flakes before eating. This gives extra texture and enhances the coconut flavor.
• Stir in a spoonful of almond butter. It makes the oats creamier and adds healthy fats.
• Add a dash of cinnamon or cardamom. These warm spices complement the mango wonderfully.
• Use frozen mango instead of fresh. It’ll make your oats extra cold and refreshing.
• Toss in some chopped nuts like cashews or macadamias. They bring a satisfying crunch to each bite.
• Drizzle maple syrup on top if you like it sweeter. It adds a rich flavor that works well with the fruit.
• Mix in some vegan protein powder. This turns your breakfast into a post-workout meal.

Storage Tips

Keep your mango overnight oats fresh and tasty with these easy storage tips.

• Pop your prepared oats in an airtight container before putting them in the fridge. This helps lock in flavor and prevents any fridge odors from seeping in.
• You can store your oats for up to 5 days in the refrigerator. This makes them perfect for meal prepping on Sunday for the week ahead.
• If you like your oats extra cold, try placing them in the back of the fridge where it’s coolest. Just don’t let them freeze!
• When you’re ready to eat, give your oats a good stir. The coconut milk might separate a bit, but a quick mix will bring everything back together.
• For best texture, add any crunchy toppings like nuts or granola right before eating. This keeps them from getting soggy.
• If you want to take your oats on the go, use a portable container with a tight-fitting lid. Mason jars work great for this.
