Are you craving something sweet and flaky? Do you love the combination of almonds and croissants? Well, my friend, you're in luck because today we're going to make some delicious Almond Croissants with a twist of Marzipan! So, grab your spatula and let's get started!
Ingredients:
- 1 package of croissant dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 7 oz. of Marzipan
- 1/2 tsp. of Vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp. of Granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup of Almond slices
- A little bit of patience and a lot of love!
Step 1: Roll out your croissant dough on a floured surface. Cut it into triangles that are wide enough to fit a small piece of marzipan in the center. Place a small piece of marzipan (about a tablespoon) in the center of each triangle.
Step 2: Roll up the croissant dough around the marzipan, starting at the wide end and rolling towards the point. Repeat with the remaining triangles.
Step 3: Place the croissants on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush each croissant with a little bit of water to help them get nice and crispy.
Step 4: Sprinkle granulated sugar on top of each croissant. This will give them a little bit of extra sweetness and crunch.
Step 5: Bake the croissants in a preheated oven at 375°F for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
Step 6: Once your croissants are out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes before adding the finishing touches. Brush each croissant with a little bit of vanilla extract to give them a lovely aroma and flavor.
Step 7: Finally, sprinkle some almond slices on top of each croissant. This will add a lovely crunch and nuttiness to your already amazing almond croissants with marzipan!
Voila! Your Almond Croissants with Marzipan are now ready to be served and enjoyed. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a sweet treat any time of the day. So, grab a cup of coffee or tea and indulge in the deliciousness!
