Tips
Granola Storage: Store cooled granola in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Make a double batch for quick breakfasts.
Mango Selection: Choose mangoes that yield slightly to pressure and smell sweet at the stem end. Ataulfo mangoes are especially creamy.
Yogurt Options: Use coconut yogurt for a dairy-free version, or blend Greek yogurt with a little coconut milk for extra tropical flavor.
Make-Ahead: Prepare granola and dice mango the night before. Assemble bowls just before serving for best texture.
Variations: Add other tropical fruits like pineapple, papaya, or dragon fruit. Toasted macadamia nuts make a luxurious addition.
Protein Boost: Stir a scoop of vanilla protein powder into the yogurt for extra staying power.
