The texture is quite soft yet firm. The smooth texture comes from the fruit and the firmness from the oats and bread crumbs. The brown sugar topping gives a nice crunch as you bite into this deliciously healthy pudding!

Notes
The color does not change after cooked, so don’t over cook the pudding. You could replace mango with other fruits like apples, peaches, pears, strawberries. The method is the same for all. After roasting oats, you could coarsely crush them if desired. But see that they are not powdered fine. You need to have some bite left in them. Use juicy mangoes for a soft pudding consistency.
