Mango Lassi Overnight Oats
Creamy mango lassi inspired overnight oats with curd, cardamom, saffron, and vanilla protein for an easy high-protein breakfast.
Ingredients
For the overnight oats base
- 1/2 cup ripe mango finely chopped or lightly mashed
- 1/2 cup curd
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1/4 tsp cardamom powder
- 2 to 3 saffron strands crushed
- 1 tsp chia seeds
For garnish
- 1 tsp chopped pistachios
- extra mango pieces (optional)
Instructions
Make the creamy base
- In a bowl or jar, whisk curd and vanilla protein powder until smooth and lump-free.
- Add mango, cardamom powder, and crushed saffron, then mix until creamy.
Assemble and chill
- Stir in oats and chia seeds until evenly combined.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Finish and serve
- Stir before serving and loosen with 1 to 2 tbsp milk if needed.
- Top with chopped pistachios and extra mango.
Notes
For a dairy-free version, use unsweetened coconut or almond yogurt and plant-based vanilla protein powder.
Keep pistachios as a last-minute topping so they stay crunchy.
If using very sweet mango, no extra sweetener is needed.
Store in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
