Comment préparer French Croissant

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water. Add the sugar and salt, and stir until combined.
  2. Add the flour gradually, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  4. Add the softened butter, a little at a time, kneading until fully incorporated. The dough will be soft and pliable.
  5. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning once to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  6. Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently roll it into a large rectangle.
  7. Fold the dough into thirds, like a letter, then rotate it 90 degrees and repeat the folding process. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
  8. Repeat the rolling and folding process two more times, chilling for 30 minutes after each fold.
  9. Roll the dough into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick. Cut it into triangles.
  10. Roll up each triangle from the wide end to the point. Curve the croissants into crescents and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  11. Let the croissants proof for another 30-60 minutes, until almost doubled in size.
  12. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  13. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  14. Let the croissants cool completely on a wire rack before serving and enjoy!
