VDP Croissant 1000X1000

Ingredients

  • VDP croissant / Danish dough
  • egg yolk
  • 10% whole milk

Baking advice

  • 17 minutes at 195°C

Tip

  • After spraying the egg mixture, using a sieve, sprinkle extra fine granulated sugar over the croissant for extra shine/crispness

Preparation

Roll out the croissant dough to 3 mm thickness. Cool well to 3 - 4°C. Cut the dough 12 by 28 cm. Cool down to freezing point. Lightly moisten the dough. Roll the croissant up tightly at the beginning, this ensures a beautiful weft. Leave the croissants to rise in a proving cabinet at a temperature of 28°C with a humidity of no more than 70% until the dough has loosened nicely. For extra shine, spray the croissants with egg yolk and 10% whole milk before baking.
