- Granola - either use a favourite or see the options below!
- Coconut cream - used as a swap here for yoghurt.
- Non-dairy milk - use the type that suits you best.
- Maple syrup - for a touch of sweetness.
- Pistachio nuts - go so well with mango. Make sure to use unsalted ones!

🔪 Step by step instructions
Step 1
In a blender, pulse blend your mango along with the non-dairy milk and maple syrup. If using frozen mango you may need to either thaw it beforehand or use a little more milk. Blend to a thick puree.
Step 2
Layer the granola on the bottom of your jar, spoon in the coconut cream, another small layer of granola and then your mango puree. Top with the pistachio nuts.
💭 Recipe tips and notes
- Adjust the quantities of granola and puree to your preference. Some people love a lot of granola, others just a little sprinkle. I would have a fair amount of puree as the granola would be quite dry otherwise.
- It's best not to leave the jar to sit after assembled as the coconut cream and mango puree will make the granola go a little soggy.
- If you prefer you can add some non-dairy milk in with the granola for a 'wetter' consistency.
