Makes 4 (16oz) overnight oats:
The Goods:
For the golden milk:
4 cups water
1/2 cup cashews, soaked in hot water for 15 minutes and drained
3 dates, pitted
1 1/2 tsp tumeric powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of cardamom
Pinch of black pepper
2 tbsp agave
For the mango yogurt mixture:
3 mangos, diced and peeled
3/4 cup unsweetened plain vegan yogurt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp agave
For the overnight oats:
4 cups gluten free organic rolled oats, divided
2 tbsp shredded coconut flakes, divided
Cinnamon powder, divided
The Method:
Start by making the milk. In high powered blender and add all the golden milk ingredients into it. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes until smooth. The cashews have no outer shell, so there’s no need for straining. Set aside inside the blender or pour into a glass container. (Bai’s Tip: If the milk sits too long in the blender it can stain your blender yellow, so you can quickly transfer the liquid into a separate container until it’s ready to be used.)
Next, toss the diced mango, vegan yogurt, vanilla extract, and agave into a large mixing bowl then mix with a spoon until everything is coated. Set aside.
Grab four clean and dried (16oz) mason jars and pour in one cup of oats into each one. Pour enough golden milk over all the oats for them to be submerged just slightly. Mix with a fork and if needed, add a pinch of milk to all the oats to have them perfectly submerge. Not too much golden milk where the oats are swimming, but not too little that the oats don’t have enough milk to soak up and expand. Let the oats sit for 5 minutes.
Save the extra golden milk in a covered glass jar for your lattes, cereal, or anything else your heart desires.
Now, grab your mango/yogurt mixture and distribute the mixture evenly between all four jars.
Garnish each jar with 1/2 tablespoon of coconut flakes, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Cap with a lid and store in the fridge for 4+ hours or overnight before enjoying. Best enjoyed extra chilled!
