The magic of homemade croissants lies in their simplicity and the satisfaction they bring when they come out hot from the oven. This recipe, inspired by the food blogs “Dans vos Assiettes” and “Voyage Culinaire”, promises to transform your kitchen into a little French bakery. Far from the idea that making croissants is a long and tedious process, this easy and quick method is perfect for lovers of homemade pastries who want to enjoy delicious croissants without spending all day on it.
What makes this recipe unique is the use of fermented milk, an ingredient that is not common in traditional croissant recipes. Fermented milk gives the dough a soft texture and a slight tang that perfectly balances the rich, buttery taste. Combined with organic flour and fresh yeast, it creates a light and airy dough that will turn into a crispy, golden brown puff pastry when baked.
The manufacturing process, although quite simple, requires a bit of technique, especially in shaping the croissants. The key step is to delicately integrate the butter into the dough, taking care not to crush the layers, to ensure perfect puff pastry. The croissants are then formed from triangles of dough, carefully rolled to obtain this iconic shape so loved.
Baking transforms these little rolls of dough into golden, crispy and irresistibly fragrant croissants. Whether enjoyed hot, warm or cold, plain or accompanied by jam, chestnut cream, or even geranium jam for an original touch, these croissants promise to delight the taste buds. In addition, their preparation does not require hours of work, so they are perfect for a lazy Sunday morning or to surprise your loved ones with a special homemade breakfast.
