Preparation of Batter
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine all crepe batter ingredients and whisk until smooth.
Cooking the Crepes
  1. Heat a non-stick pan over low heat. Pour 1/3 cup of pancake batter into the center of the pan.
  2. Cook for about 4 minutes until small bubbles appear, then transfer to a cooling rack. Cook only one side.
Making the Whipped Cream
  1. In a separate bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream on low speed, gradually increasing to high speed until stiff peaks form.
Assembling Pancakes
  1. Take one crepe, yellow side down. Place a slice of mango in the center and spread about 1/4 cup of whipped cream on top.
  2. Roll the crepe tightly like a burrito and tuck in the edges.
  3. Flip the pancake to have the seamless side facing up and slice down the middle.
  4. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Notes

Serve the pancakes chilled, optionally dusted with icing sugar. Pair with additional mango slices or seasonal fruits for a delightful touch. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days, keeping whipped cream separate.
