Hello my dear readers. Today I have a croissant recipe for you. If you like croissants, then I have the right recipe for you. When it comes to pastries and bread, I'm a little skeptical. When baking cakes, I have no problems, but when it comes to dough, yeast dough or short pastry, then I always have a bad feeling. But with this dough you can not do anything wrong. I got the recipe from this Romanian blog.
500
g flour
250
ml milk
1
package yeast
2
tbsp honey
1
tsp salt
25
g butter, at room temperature
+
chocolate/
jam/ Nutella or whatever you want
1
egg yolk
1-2
tsp warm milk
What we need to do:
First give the yeast in a bowl and mix well with 2 tbsp warm water. Add 1 tablespoon flour and let rest in a warm place for 15 minutes.
Heat milk and butter (but do not boil).
In a a large bowl add flour, salt, honey, milk-butter mixture and the yeast and mix to a homogeneous, non-sticky dough. Cover, and let rise for 1 hour in a warm place.
Preheat oven to 170°C degrees.
Divide the dough in 2. Roll out each half as round as possible and divide into 8 pieces. Spread the filling to the wide end of each triangle. Roll up, starting at widest side of triangle, rolling to opposite point.
Put croissant on a tin lined with baking paper. Whisk one egg yolk with 1-2 tsp warm milk and brush the croissants. Sprinkle with brown sugar.
Bake for 15-17 minutes until golden brown.
The (non filled) croissants taste for breakfast very good. You can eat them with jam or butter.
If you want a salty filling, then give only 1 tbsp honey to the dough. Of course they can also bake these croissants without filling. And if you want sweeter croissants, then add another 2-3 tbsp of honey to the dough. As you see, these croissants are little all-round talents.
