 Quick Moroccan Croissants (Easy Homemade Version) 🥐

Ingredients:

• 500 g all-purpose flour

• 1 tbsp sugar

• 1 tsp salt

• 1 tbsp instant yeast

• 1 egg

• 250 ml warm milk

• 60 g melted butter

• 100 g soft butter (for quick layering)

• 1 egg yolk + 1 tbsp milk (for brushing)

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, salt, and yeast.

2. Add the egg, warm milk, and melted butter.

3. Knead for 8–10 minutes until you get a soft, smooth dough.

4. Cover and let it rise for 45–60 minutes until doubled in size.

5. Roll the dough into a rectangle.

6. Spread the soft butter over the surface.

7. Fold the dough into thirds (like a letter).

8. Roll it out again and fold once more — this gives a quick laminated effect.

9. Roll the dough to medium thickness.

10. Cut into triangles.

11. Roll each triangle from the base to the tip to form croissants.

12. Place on a baking tray and let rise 30 minutes.

13. Brush with egg yolk + milk.

14. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15–20 minutes until golden.
