Hong Kong Style Mango Pancakes

Ingredients

  • 3 large mangoes
  • 1 cup milk
  • cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 3 large eggs I lost the clip of me cracking the third egg 😅
  • 1 tbsp melted butter
  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • 4 tbsp powdered sugar
  • Yellow Food Coloring (optional)

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, sugar, and eggs.
  • Sift in the flour and cornstarch, then whisk until smooth.
  • Stir in the melted butter. Optional: Add yellow food coloring. Set the batter aside to rest while you prep the filling.
  • In another bowl, add the cold heavy cream and powdered sugar.
  • Whip until stiff peaks form. Chill until ready to use.
  • Peel and slice the mangoes.
  • Cut the cheeks off each side of the seed, then trim them into rectangle strips.
  • If the mango is extra large, cut each cheek into two thinner strips.
  • Heat a nonstick pan over medium-low. Lightly grease if needed.
  • Pour about ¾ cup of batter into the pan and swirl to coat evenly. Give the batter a good stir before adding it to the pan.
  • Cook for ~1 minute or until just set. No flipping needed.
  • Transfer to a paper towel to cool and prevent sogginess.
  • Lay a cooled crepe on a flat surface.
  • Spoon a dollop of whipped cream into the center.
  • Place a mango strip on top.
  • Fold both sides toward the center, then fold the bottom up and roll tightly to close.
  • Flip seam-side down. Slice in half.
  • Enjoy!
