Coconut mango bars with lime glaze
Recipe video above. I adore the combination of mangoes, coconut and lime is a no-fail combination, and here it is in handheld bar form. The contrast of the crispy base and crumbly coconutty topping sandwiching the juicy mango layer is so good! I also like the texture the oats add, that it's not too sweet, and straightforward to make. Honestly, cutting the mangoes takes the most time!TOP TIP: Mango slices = terrific thick layer of juicy mango. Diced mango mostly turns into mush. Slicing wins!
