How to Make Cinnamon Almond Croissants
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Thaw puff pastry according to package directions (approximately 40 minutes).
- In a medium bowl, combine softened butter (1/2 cup), brown sugar (1/4 cup), cinnamon (2 teaspoons), and almond extract (1 teaspoon).
- Unfold the puff pastry sheet and spread the cinnamon-almond mixture evenly over the surface.
- Gently sprinkle sliced almonds (1/4 cup) over the cinnamon mixture.
- Tightly roll the pastry into a log, starting from the long side.
- Cut the log into 1-inch thick slices.
- Place the croissant slices onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Dust with powdered sugar (optional) for extra sweetness.
