Mango Overnight Oats with Turmeric and Chia Seeds. Golden Overnight Oatmeal with toasted oats. Vegan Gluten-free Nut-free Soy-free Recipe. Jump to Recipe
Summers can get busy and tiring and all I need is some already made breakfast that will wake me up. And these Mango Overnight Oats with chia seeds and turmeric are just that. Vibrant, Refreshing, chilled and Delicious.
Get some ripe mangoes, puree with non dairy milk. Toast some old fashioned oats (toasting adds a nice nutty flavor and also improves the oat texture and flavor), add some seeds. Mix with mango puree, layer with some chia pudding, berries or other toppings and done. Use certified gluten-free oats if needed or gluten-free muesli of choice to keep this glutenfree. I topped these jars with wild blueberries, coconut and chia seeds.

Tips to make your favorite Overnight Oats.
- The consistency of the overnight oats can be adjusted to your preference. Use almost the same amount of liquid as oats, just a bit more (about 2/3 cup for 1/2 cup oats) and adjust from there.
- Make the overnight oats your own with additions of sliced fruits and fruit puree of choice, some nut butter swirls, granola, spices, zest and more.
- Overnight oats will keep for upto 3 days depending on the fruit used.
- Use muesli for variation instead of just oats.
- For these mango oats, I like more mango in the oatmeal than the oats (who doesnt!), adjust the liquid,less or more to preference.

August 3, 2018 at 1:49 pmI made this for breakfast today, and it was fantastic! I got a mango that was so sweet that I didn’t need to add any sweetener. I’ll definitely make this again 🙂

August 4, 2018 at 7:00 pmMangoes in oats?! Not something that I would pair on the regular, but I bet it would taste wondrous! Why do you toast the oats before soaking them overnight, out of curiosity?
