Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
2 tbsp melted butter
1/4 tsp salt
2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
1 cup whipped cream
2 tbsp powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a blender, combine flour, eggs, milk, water, melted butter, and salt. Blend until smooth, ensuring there are no lumps in the batter.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with butter or oil, then pour in a small amount of batter, swirling the pan to create a thin layer of crepe.
- Cook the crepe for about 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to lift and the underside is golden brown. Flip the crepe and cook for another minute. Remove from the pan and set aside. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- In a mixing bowl, combine diced mangoes, whipped cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir gently to combine, creating a smooth filling.
- Spread a generous amount of the mango cream mixture over each crepe, then fold the crepe into quarters or roll it up.
- Garnish with extra mango pieces and a light dusting of powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
- Add coconut: For an extra tropical touch, add shredded coconut to the mango cream filling.
- Fruit alternatives: Try using other fruits like strawberries, blueberries, or peaches instead of mangoes.
- Chocolate drizzle: For chocolate lovers, drizzle some melted dark or milk chocolate over the crepes before serving.
- Dairy-free option: Replace the whipped cream with coconut cream and use dairy-free butter for a vegan version.
