Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (200g)
- 1 cup ripe mango, peeled and finely chopped or mashed (about 150g)
- 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk (120ml)
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (60ml)
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (about 30ml)
- Zest of 1 medium lime
- 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (20g)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Peel and finely chop or mash the ripe mango to about 1/4-inch pieces or puree slightly if preferred. Zest and juice the lime, and measure out oats, shredded coconut, and other ingredients. (About 10 minutes)
- In a mixing bowl, combine coconut milk, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, fresh lime juice, and lime zest. Stir gently until well blended and smooth.
- Fold in the chopped or mashed mango carefully to keep some texture. (2-3 minutes)
- Add rolled oats, shredded coconut, and a pinch of salt to the wet mixture. Stir until evenly coated and sticky but holds together when pressed. Adjust moisture by adding a splash of coconut milk if too dry or more oats/coconut if too wet. (3-4 minutes)
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a spoon or wet hands, scoop about 2 tablespoons (30g) of mixture and shape into small rounds about 2 inches (5cm) wide. Place evenly spaced on the tray. Makes about 12-14 cookies. (10 minutes)
- Refrigerate the tray for at least 1 hour to firm up and allow flavors to meld.
- Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Notes
Use fresh, ripe mangoes for best flavor and texture. Chill time is essential for cookies to set properly. If cookies are crumbly, add a bit more honey or coconut milk next time. For a quicker set, freeze for 15 minutes. Avoid overmixing to keep mango chunks intact. Lime zest is important for bright citrus flavor.
