Ingredients

Croissant Dough 

  • 400 g of flour
  • 260ml of milk
  • 180 -200g butter – keep it in the Freezer
  • 4 tablespoons of sugar
  • 1\4 soupspoon of salt
  • 1 tablespoon of active Dry Yeast
  • 1 tablespoon of Yeast

Egg wash

  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon of milk

Almond paste

  • 1 egg
  • 3\4 cup of unsalted butter
  • 1\2 tablespoon of almond extract
  • 2 1\2 cups of almond flour
  • 1 1\2 cups of powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of cornstarch

Preparation

Almond Paste

  • Whisk egg, butter, and almond extract. Blend it with almond flour, powdered sugar, and cornstarch. This will be the almond paste – set it aside.

Croissant

  • Dissolve sugar and dry yeast in warm milk. This first step is going to activate the yeast.
  • Whisk salt and flour.
  • Mix the wet and the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Knead them until we get homogenous dough. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rise for 2hrs or until the dough gets doubled in size.
  • Roll the dough into a long rectangular shape and spread the butter all over the top of it. Knead the dough again until the butter is evenly mixed.
  • Roll the dough into a long rectangular shape again and with the help of a knife or a pizza cutter, cut it into small triangles.
  • Put one heaped tablespoon of the almond paste on each triangle and shape them into croissants.
  • Put them in a baking pan, apply the egg wash, cover the baking pan with plastic wrap and let the croissant buns rise for two more hours or until they puff up a little.
  • After this time, remove the plastic wrap, apply another egg wash on the croissant buns and bake them at 200 degrees for 15 minutes.
  • Reduce the temperature to 180 degrees, take the leftover almond paste and spread it over each almond croissant. Sprinkle sliced almond over each croissant and bake them for another 5-8 minutes or until they turn golden.    
  • Let them cool. Dust powdered sugar over the top of each croissant.
