Bake
Bake 360F | 16 - 20 Min.
Refrigerate
Refrigerate for better taste.
Activate yeast with lukewarm water and sugar. I am using a stand mixer but feel free to knead by hand. Add all the ingredients to a stand mixer. Knead on medium speed for 5 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl. Proof for 1 hour. After 1 hour shape the dough in a rectangle. Wrap it up and refrigerate for 1 hour until cold or refrigerate overnight.
Let's make the butter square. Use ziploc or parchment paper. Measurements 20 x 16 CM. Press and roll to soften the butter. Roll out into a rectangle. Refrigerate until use.
Roll dough out 40 x 16 CM. Place the butter block in the middle. Fold top and bottom to the middle. Pinch middle to seal. Roll out approx. 40 x 16 CM. *Optional: trim the edges
Fold dough to create 3 layers. Wrap up. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Repeat 2 more times. So it's a total of 3 roll and folds.
After the last fold, refrigerate overnight
Next Day ^-^. Roll dough out 25x25 CM. Measure distance from the top 8 - 8 - 8 CM.
Measure distance from the bottom 4 - 8 - 8 - 4 CM. Cut in triangles.
Let's roll the croissant! Gently stretch out the dough.
Roll it up. Proof until doubled in size. This took me approx. 2 hours.
Brush with egg wash. Bake 360F for 16 -20 minutes.
Cool down.
Enjoy! ✿◕ ‿ ◕✿
TIPS & NOTES
✿ When layering the croissant dough make sure the dough is cold every time you roll it out. If it get too warm the butter will melt into the dough and it won’t turn out flaky.
✿ If the dough is too hard to roll out leave it for about 5 min at room temperature.
✿ Proofing time might differ depending on temperature and humidity.
