Croissants. Everyone’s favourite especially baby and Hub. The buttery aroma filled my kitchen when I baked these today. The dough and butter was prepared the previous night. Method. Three times of turning and rolling and shaping, is so challenging. My fear of melting butter when I started to roll out and proof. I hate the rolling part but I so love the sight of them puffing up in the oven. Zann fell in love with croissants after trying them for the first time.
I will make these again because I still need to improve my brushing.
