Why I Like this Recipe
I like these mango and vanilla snack pots. Cottage cheese makes them creamy and high in protein, while mango adds natural sweetness and a fresh taste. They are also practical to make ahead, so you always have a snack ready in the fridge.
Tips and Variations

- Top with fresh berries or sliced banana just before serving.
- Use certified gluten-free oats if required.
- Replace the mango with peaches, raspberries or blueberries.
- Add a small drizzle of nut butter for a richer flavour.
- Warm briefly before serving for a softer texture and a more noticeable vanilla flavour.

Freezer tips
You can freeze individual portions for up to 2 months. Wrap them well or use airtight containers to keep the texture fresh.

Yes, one pot makes a nice light breakfast. Add Greek yoghurt, skyr, or fresh fruit if you want something more filling. For an even more substantial option, try this mango breakfast bake with cottage cheese.
Store the baked pots covered or in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Let them cool completely before refrigerating.
