- Mix in 2 tablespoons of roughly chopped cashews.
- Divide the oatmeal mixture into serving bowls.
- Top each bowl with the toasted coconut for an extra crunch and tropical flavor.

Tips:
- Ensure the mango is ripe for maximum sweetness and flavor.
- Toast the dried coconut and cashews for a few minutes in a dry skillet before adding them to the oatmeal to enhance their flavor and crunch.
- Use a non-stick saucepan to cook the oatmeal to avoid sticking and burning.
- Add a pinch of salt to the oatmeal while cooking to balance the sweetness of the brown sugar and mango.
- For an extra creamy texture, consider cooking the oatmeal in a mixture of water and coconut milk.
