Step 7. Preheat the pan on low heat, pour the batter into the pan and spread it evenly to just coat the pan. (Use a spoon to pour the batter in the middle, then rotate the pan to coat evenly as shown below.)

Step 8. Take the prepared crepe and lay it flat to cool. (The crepe should slide out of the pan easily.

If not, then scrape around the edges with a spatula. You can stack them, just make sure they are all flat.)

Tips:

If the non-stick pan isn’t that great, use a small amount of butter to grease the pan. Don’t use too much butter.

The pan must be preheated, otherwise, the batter can’t be formed quickly. When you pour the batter, the action should be fast.

Otherwise, a crepe will be formed quickly. Also, mix the batter a bit every so often, to keep it from seperating.

After Mango Crepe is done, it is best to put it back in the refrigerator for setting its shape, otherwise, it will not cut well, and the whipped cream will be better after refrigerating.

The whole cream is the easiest to whip. It will set more firmly and have a more silky taste

If you have left over crepes, wrap them with plastic wrap and store in the fridge for up to 3-5 days at most. Except for the mango for garnish, you can also fill them with other fruits like strawberries.
