Once the oats have softened and soaked up the liquid, stir everything again and spoon into individual mason jars or bowls, layered with the fresh mango. Serve chilled, topped with mango, granola, or plain. Store up to 5 days.

Notes
Coconut is sometimes an elimination food on a migraine diet. For plain overnight oats, substitute the coconut milk with another type of milk.
For the coconutmilk, I used Native Forest. Hemp, rice milk, or regular milk are also favorites.
If using oat milk or sweetened milk, you may not need to add honey. Taste and adjust accordingly.
