It is so easy.. it really takes no more than 20 minutes of work… the rest is simply waiting, and the croissants are wonderful. They are probably not as flaky as the classic ones but for all the little work involved they are just perfect. Crispy on the outside, buttery, flaky, a perfect treat for breakfast or brunch. You can serve it as it is with a bit of jam alongside your coffee or tea, or even prepare a delicious sandwich. I am craving for some just as I am writing these words right now. 🙂
This is a recipe I will definitely make pretty often, I already did it for about five times by now and each time they were devoured almost immediately. My little culinary judges, my daughters, were really delighted by these quick croissants. Give them a try, you will love them.
