Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 3 eggs
• ½ cup orange juice
• ¾ cup water
• ⅔ cup milk
• ¼ teaspoon white sugar
• 4 teaspoons white sugar
• 5 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided, or as needed
• 6 ripe mangoes, sliced
• 1 pint vanilla ice cream, or as needed
• 2 tablespoons chocolate sauce, or to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Blend flour, water, milk, eggs, 4 teaspoons vegetable oil, salt, and sugar together in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Step 2

Heat a crepe pan or skillet over medium heat. Brush with remaining 1 teaspoon oil. Stir batter well before pouring about 5 tablespoons into the heated pan to form a very thin coat. Cook crepe until set and bubbles start to appear on the surface, 1 to 2 minutes. Run a spatula around the edge of the skillet to loosen crepe; flip crepe and cook until the other side has turned light brown, about 1 minute more. Transfer crepe onto waxed paper. Repeat with remaining batter, being careful not to stack crepes until completely cooled.

Step 3

Heat a saucepan over medium-high heat. Pour in orange juice and sugar. Bring to a boil; add mangoes, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Return to a boil and cook for 2 minutes; set aside to cool.

Step 4

Lay crepes on a flat, clean surface. Add mango filling to each and roll like a cigar. Place on a dessert plate; top with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup.
