Steps to make How to make croissants:
- Day 1 - Place all dry ingredients into a bowl and mix together. Make a well and add the butter and liquid. Bring together then place onto a floured surface. Work the dough lightly for about 3 minutes. You don't want to over work the dough as it will be harder to incorporate the butter on the next day. Push the dough down to form a flat disk place onto a lightly floured tray, cover and place into the fridge for at least 8 hours and up to 12.
- Day 2 - 1 hour before you take the dough from fridge. Get your butter and pound it with a rolling pin to make it nice and flat. For the easiest method, place the butter between two pieces of parchment paper and gently pound until square and flat about 1/4". Place back into the fridge. Take your dough out of the fridge and place onto a lightly floured surface. Pin out to form a square. Then pin each side out so you have an envelope, 4 thin corners and a slightly raised centre piece.
- Roll out dough into a large rectangle - * make the butter layer (I have an easy trick for this!!!) - * enclose the butter layer inside the dough Place back into the fridge and rest for 1 hour.
- Day 3 - - * roll out the dough into another large rectangle, then fold it back together - * roll out the dough again, fold it back together again - * roll out the dough one more time, fold it back together - * shape the croissants - * bake😋😉
