    Why You Will Love This Recipe

    Mango is easily one of my favorite fruits, and this simple mango smoothie recipe celebrates it in all of its sweet-tart glory. Mango is the only fruit in this drinkable snack, which is supported by a cast of milk, yogurt, oats and honey. This is simplicity at it's finest!

    I love how simple and adaptable this recipe is. While I opted to use fresh mango since they're in season where I live, you can easily swap in frozen cubes that are readily available all year long.

    You can also swap out the dairy products for vegan alternatives and swap the honey for agave or maple if you prefer. Oh, and as long as you opt for certified gluten free oats, my healthy mango yogurt smoothie is suitable for just about any diet.

    Made with just a handful of simple ingredients - most of which I'd bet you already have on hand - this creamy mango oat smoothie comes together in just a few minutes and will keep you full till lunchtime.

    Mango is low in calories and packed with immune boosting vitamin C and antioxidants. Plain yogurt is a great source of probiotics, protein and nutrients. Heart healthy rolled oats add fiber, while milk adds an extra dose of protein and nutrients.

    This mango smoothie has all the healthy hallmarks of being the perfect quick breakfast, snack or light meal. What's better than something that tastes like a treat but is packed with good-for-you ingredients?!?

    I can almost guarantee you're going to obsess over this refreshing summertime beverage. I know I do!

    Ingredients

    Like I said before, this swoon-worthy mango smoothie requires just a handful of easy to find ingredients. Here's everything you'll need:

    • Cubed Mango - Depending on where you live, mango may or may not be in season. If it IS mango season, I highly recommend you opt for fresh mango because there's nothing like it. Here are some tips on picking the perfect mango. If mangos AREN'T in season, don't fret. Look in the freezer aisle of your grocery store. As an added bonus for frozen mango, you don't have to worry about peeling or cubing the fruit!
    • Yogurt - To allow the full sweet-tart flavor of the mango to shine through in the smoothie, I recommend choosing plain, unsweetened yogurt. If you are dairy free or vegan, simply swap in your favorite alt-dairy yogurt instead.
    • Milk - I used dairy milk in this mango smoothie, but you can easily swap in your favorite alternative milk like oat, almond or soy instead. I recommend opting for unsweetened varieties to limit the added sugar. You can also boost the sweetness naturally by opting for your favorite fruit juice instead. Orange, pineapple or mango juice would all work very well.
    • Oats - To ensure proper blending, opt for old-fashioned rolled oats, quick cooking rolled oats or instant oats. Do NOT reach for steel cut oats, as these will stay rock hard for a long time.
    • Honey - Honey is my preferred natural sweetener of choice, but you can easily swap in agave syrup, maple syrup or date syrup instead.
    • Vanilla - While vanilla extract is technically optional, it adds a lot of depth of flavor to this yummy mango oat smoothie. If you have some on hand, I definitely recommend you use it.

    How to Make Mango Smoothie

    One thing I love about making smoothies is how simple and fast they are!

    Optional first step: If you'd like, you can soak the oats in milk for a few minutes or up to overnight. This will aid the blending process and result in a creamier smoothie, especially if your blender is not particularly high-powered.

    If you opt to soak your oats overnight, be sure to keep them in the refrigerator for food safety purposes.

    Place milk, yogurt, rolled oats, mango chunks, honey and vanilla extract in high-powered blender jar.

    Blend until smooth. The blender should create a smooth and even cyclone of movement. You can add a little more milk to thin down the consistency if needed and then blend again.

    FAQs

    Can I make this smoothie without yogurt?

    Yes! Feel free to skip the yogurt and add a bit more milk. You can also opt to use buttermilk or kefir in place of the yogurt.

    What other fruits can go with mango in a smoothie?

    As a tropical fruit, my mind immediately goes to banana and pineapple. That said, I think strawberry mango or orange mango would be delightful combinations as well.

    Can I make mango smoothies without milk?

    Sure! Either opt for a dairy free alternative like oat, almond or soy milk, or swap in your favorite fruit juice. Just note that the nutritional content of the smoothie will change.

    How to make it vegan or dairy free?

    Quite simply, actually. Opt for non-dairy milk and yogurt (or swap in fruit juice), and substitute agave or maple syrup for the honey.

    How to make mango and banana smoothie?

    Simply add 1 frozen banana and proceed with the rest of the recipe as written, adding a bit more milk to thin down the consistency if needed. Yum!

    Expert tips

    1. Soaking your oats overnight will result in the creamiest mango smoothie imaginable. Just be sure to do so in the refrigerator for food safety.
    2. Use a good, heavy-duty blender to make the creamiest smoothies around.
    3. While either fresh or frozen mango will work for this smoothie recipe, I highly recommend opting for fresh if mangoes are in season.
    4. Keep this smoothie a little thick to turn it into a smoothie bowl, then top with your favorite fruits, nuts and granola!

    Add-ins and Variations

    One of the beauties of smoothies is how easily adaptable they are to your personal preferences and what you have on hand. Here are some ideas for things you can add in, swap for other ingredients or use as toppings for a smoothie bowl:

    • Fruits - Feel free to add in strawberry, pineapple, oranges, raspberries, blueberries, kiwis, passion fruit, dragon fruit, avocado, goji berries, acai berries or bananas.
    • Milk - Use whatever kind you generally prefer. If you opt for dairy, I recommend at least 2% milk for best consistency, or swap in almond, oat, soy or coconut milk for non-dairy options instead.
    • Fruit Juices - If you are dairy free or if you prefer a sweeter smoothie, feel free to replace some or all of the milk with pineapple juice, orange juice, apple juice, or mango nectar.
    • Greens - Smoothies are a great way to sneak a little extra veg into your diet. Try adding a handful or two of kale, spinach, or chard.
    • Nuts & Seeds - If you want a bit of extra fat, fiber and protein, feel free to supplement with nuts, seeds or nut butters. Almonds, pistachios, walnuts, cashew nuts, chia seeds, flax seeds, hemp hearts or sunflower seeds would all work.
    • Other options: Feel free to add in protein powder, maca, spirulina, wheat germ, bee pollen or any other superfoods or powders you like.

    Storage and Freezing

    The mango smoothies are best enjoyed fresh from the blender. If you have any leftovers, you can refrigerate them for up to 3 days, though some natural separation may occur. You can also freeze any leftovers into popsicle molds for a healthy, portable treat!
