Ingredients
  

For the Crêpe Batter
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Can substitute with gluten-free flour
  • 1 cup Reduced Fat Milk Almond or oat milk can be used
  • 0.5 cup Water
  • 2 large Eggs Cage-free recommended
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated White Sugar Reduce for less sweetness
  • 3 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Melted butter works best
  • 1 pinch Salt Enhances flavor
For the Filling
  • 2 medium Ripe Yellow Mangoes (Manila or Ataulfo) Opt for bright, soft mangoes
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream Non-dairy substitute allowed
  • 2 tablespoons Powdered Sugar Can be omitted for less sweetness
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Pure vanilla enhances flavor

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • sifter
  • Non-stick skillet
  • spatula

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs until frothy. Gradually add in milk and water, blending smoothly. Mix in sugar and a pinch of salt, then incorporate melted butter.
  2. Sift flour directly into the wet mixture. Stir gently to combine about half, then add remaining flour and mix until smooth. Strain batter through a fine sieve, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  3. Chill a mixing bowl for whipping the cream. Pour in heavy cream and whip on medium speed until medium-thick, about 2-3 minutes. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet over low-medium heat and lightly grease. Pour ⅓ cup of batter into the pan, swirling to create a thin circle. Cook until edges are set, about 1-2 minutes, flip and cook for another 30 seconds.
  5. Take a crêpe and place it smooth side down on a plate. Add whipped cream in the center, then sliced mango. Fold crêpe over the filling, tucking in the sides like a burrito.
