Tips:

  • Use cold butter: Cold butter is easier to work with and will help to keep the dough from becoming too greasy.
  • Laminate the dough: Laminating the dough will create flaky layers in the finished croissants.
  • Chill the dough between folds: Chilling the dough between folds will help to keep the butter from becoming too soft and melting into the dough.
  • Proof the croissants in a warm place: Proofing the croissants in a warm place will help them to rise and become fluffy.
  • Bake the croissants until they are golden brown: Baking the croissants until they are golden brown will give them a crispy outer crust and a soft and fluffy interior.
