published on 9 January, 2023 at 12:30
Ingredients:
370 g of Manitoba flour
40 g of granulated sugar
3,5g of dry brewer's yeast or half a cube of fresh brewer's yeast
190 g of cold milk
1 tbsp o vanilla extract or half a packet of vanillin
Orange zest
7 g of salt
40 + 150 g of butter
Directions:
1. Mix flour, sugar, yeast, milk, orange zest and vanilla in a large bowl.
2. Knead for a minute then add salt.
3. Knead for 10 minutes.
4. Add butter one piece at the time.
5. When the dough is solid make a ball out of it.
6. Move the dough in a bowl and cover.
7. Let it rest in the fridge for 12 hours.
8. Now spread the dough making a rectangular shape, place it on a baking tray covered in baking paper, cover and let it cool in the freezer for 20 minutes.
9. Coat the butter in baking paper and spread it using a rolling pin to form a rectangle.
10. Place the butter in the middle of the dough and spread it. Let rest in the freezer for 30 minutes.
11. Repeat this process 3 times.
12. Spread the dough again and with a pizzacutter or a knife make some triangles.
13. Roll them to make the typical croissant shape.
14. Cover the croissant and let them rise for 2/3 hours.
15. Brush their surface with some whipped egg.
16. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180 degrees for 25/30 minutes.
17. THE HACK: if you already made the dough but you don't wat to eat the croissant right after, you can freeze them in a freezer bag.
