Check out the nutritional benefits of the ingredients used in this recipe:
Nutritional Benefits at a Glance:
Mango:
Mango is particularly high in vitamin C, which aids in immunity, iron absorption, and growth and repair. It’s also a good source of folate and several B vitamins, as well as vitamins A, C, E, and K (which help boost immunity).
Additionally, mango is high in anti-inflammatory antioxidants, containing over a dozen different types of polyphenols.
Oat Milk:
Oat milk, especially when fortified, is a rich source of nutrients. Most commercial oat milk is fortified with vitamins A, D, B2, and B12, as well as various minerals like calcium.
However please note that oat milk has more calories and carbs than other plant-based milks like almond or soy. Additionally, oat milk has less protein than soy or cow milk.
My husband with Crohn’s disease requested I use oat milk for this recipe due to its creaminess, but you could use whichever variety of milk that sounds best to you. Some other creamy non-dairy milk suggestions to consider are coconut or cashew milk.
