Tonight, is the last night of our #SummerMangoMania “Friday Night Kitchen Reels” so we thought we would share this perfect summer French Toast #recipe 🥭🍞🤤!#CrespoOrganicKitchen

Crespo Organic Mallika #mangoes are in season and these tasty new additions to our specialty varietal offerings are showing major sweetness! The varietal is original from Indian, a cross between a X and a X. But we grow these in our Sinaloa orchards in Mexico.

They are citrus forward when in the green stage and exude melon and floral notes when in the ripe stage. They are soft and creamy, and early fiberless. They are ULTRA sweet and intensely aromatic.

Mallika Mango French Toast with Strawberry Butter and Maple Syrup

Ingredients
2 medium eggs
3/4 cup cream or milk
1/2 cup mallika mango puree
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nut meg
1/4 teaspoon vanilla powder or extract
Sourdough bread slices
*Ripe strawberries, butter and maple syrup for serving

Directions:

Whisk together all of the ingredients in a bowl and pour batter into a large shallow dish. Soak some good quality bread ideally between ½ and 3/4 inches think in the batter -

Valeria Varietal’s 🧡

Hi, Valeria here again, and today i am showcasing the Kent #mango varietal 🥭 ! Fun fact is that this is my second favorite mango varietal 🧡

Kent mangoes are sweet & rich and are an excellent source of Vitamin A & C ! They are the JUICIEST varietal of all (thats why they’re one of my favorite😆). They are round to oval in size and average about 1 lb each. When ripe, they become soft and wrinkled.

They are amazing for smoothies, drinks, and sauces. The best #ChooseYourCut method for a ripe Kent mango is the Cut & Slice 🥭🧡
