Isi´s Croissantes
« on: August 20, 2010, 05:57:33 pm »
Hello  :)

For anyone who don´t like to make or eat caloric recipes this is one should not be done!!!
Okay….  Make it just once to try  :D :D :D

Here goes:

ISI´S CROISSANTES







150 grams of cold butter into the Thermomix Speed  5 until it has formed a Creamy mixture
Put aside
WITHOUT  WASHING THE Thermomix
put:
200 grams of milk
3 tablespoons Sugar
1 Pinch of Salt (I work with unsalted butter!)
20 g Fresh Baker Yeast............ 3 Minutes - 37º -  level 3
put:
350 grams flour 55 ........... 3 Minutes - level  ::

Remove the dough from the Thermomix  and divide in 7 Equal parts
Form balls and now strech the dough as thin as you can, dusting with flour  forming a circle
When the seven circles have been formed (should have more or less all the same diameter) start by greasing the first with a spatula with the reserved butter   -  overlap the next circle - greasing with butter and so forth until the last round!
(The dough is at the end a  little wavy because of the butter - thats normal)

Now just divide the circle into eight (or more) equal parts and roll each triangle from wide to the spout!
Brush the croissant with milk and let them rest for 20 minuts.
Bake in preheated oven at 180 º for about 20 minutes (note that all ovens are different!)
When finished cooking brush them again with milk!
They are very quick to make and I guarantee that they are delicious!







Hope you enjoy this

Oh Isi, you've done it again, these looks fabulous, thanks so much.  I will give them a try too at  some stage.   ;D

Looking forward to hearing how you went Chookie.  :)

Hi, I don't have fresh yeast yet, could I use a sachet if dry yeast instead?

you can substitute fresh yeast with half the amount of dried yeast bigTcup which is just a little more than a sachet for this recipe (they are 7-8g each generally)  - hope that helps

Well Isi,  you have done it again ;D ;D ;D.   Made these today,  and have come to the conclusion that I am not the artist that you are.  They taste terrific,   very buttery.   I had to spread the butter with my fingers as it is very cold here and the spatula kept dragging the pastry.   They are certainly very easy to make ,   with the dough warm, it rolls out easily.  I used dried yeast,  2 teaspoon fulls.   Next time I will use 3.  I will certainly make them again.  Thank you Isi.

They look good enough to eat Chookie and that is all that counts.

I've just seen this, I have to try them. They look so easy and delicious.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
