Croissant, the crescent-shaped pastry formed by folding butter in layers into the dough, gains a crisp, flaky texture when baked after a long proofing and folding process. It adds an elegant touch to the breakfast table.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Knead the dough and let it rise

60 min

Add the yeast and sugar to warm milk and wait for it to foam; add flour, salt, and egg and knead a soft dough, cover and let rise until doubled, then chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

2

Fold in the butter

90 min

Place cold butter in the center of the dough and fold the dough over it; roll out into a rectangle with a rolling pin and fold into thirds, repeating this process three times with 15-minute rests in the refrigerator each time.

3

Shape it

20 min

After the last fold, roll out the dough thinly and cut into triangles, rolling each triangle from the wide end to the narrow end to form a crescent shape.

4

Final proof

10 min

Arrange the shaped croissants on a baking tray and let rest at room temperature until slightly puffed.

5

Bake

20 min

Brush egg yolk on top and bake in a preheated 200-degree oven until golden brown with distinct layers. Caution: if the oven is too hot, the outside may brown quickly while the inner layers remain undercooked.

Reminder

Important: Do the folding in a cool place so the butter doesn't melt out of the dough, and let the dough rest in the fridge between each fold. Allergen: contains wheat (gluten), dairy, and egg.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

If the dough warms up during folding, the butter melts and the layers mix together; so complete each stage in a cold environment without rushing.
