For 2 servings

What you’ll need

250 g plain unsweetened yogurt
1 ripe mango (about 150 g prepared flesh)
20 g fine quick-cooking oats
2 tablespoons milk or water

Allergens
Milk. Oats may contain gluten. Dairy-free yogurt can contain soy or nuts; check labels.

One step at a time

Let’s make it

Mix the oats with the milk or water and leave for 5 minutes to soften.
Peel the mango, remove the stone and cut the flesh into small soft pieces or mash it.
Divide the yogurt and softened oats between two bowls. Add mango, or offer it alongside.
For a uniform texture, blend all the ingredients until smooth. Serve immediately.

Preparation and cooking times are estimates. Use the doneness checks in the method.

Make the texture work

Use a familiar bowl and serving temperature. Let your child see the ingredients before blending; do not hide changes to a safe food.

Season it properly

Taste before adding salt. Keep pepper, chilli and strong sauces as optional adult table add-ons.

Simple swaps

Ripe papaya or banana works instead of mango. If dairy avoidance is medically needed, choose a suitable fortified alternative with professional advice about protein and calcium.

Keep it safely

Keep refrigerated and use within 24 hours. Discard food left in a child's serving bowl. This recipe is best freshly prepared.
