Ingredients
- 2 heets puff pastry, ready-rolled Note 1
- jam or jelly as needed, Note 2
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon milk
- icing sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius/ 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line one or two baking trays (depending on how many croissants you make) with baking paper.
- Cut pastry: Unroll the puff pastry. Cut the rectangle in half lengthwise, then cut each rectangle into triangles – see picture.
- Fill and form croissants: Place about 1 teaspoon of jam at the base of each triangle and roll up the croissants starting at the bottom. Place the croissants on the prepared baking tray with the seam facing down. Bend in the edges to create a crescent shape.
- Egg wash: Beat the egg yolk and the milk in a small bowl using a fork. Brush the croissants with the egg mixture.
- Bake for about 17 - 20 minutes or until deeply golden (check the packet's instructions regarding the baking time as well).
- Let cool on a wire rack and dust with icing sugar just before serving.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- The puff pastry I use is only refrigerated and already rolled. If using frozen pastry, let it thaw and then roll it to a rectangle.
- The original Polish recipe uses rose petal jam or jelly, which is amazing! But any other sort of jam and jelly is fine.
