The recipe, step by step

  1. 01

    Croissant dough with a modern touch

    Blend the semi-candied citrus fruits into a paste. Mix the milk and yeast together. Combine the flour, salt, sugar, yeast, butter, vanilla
    powder, inverted sugar, candied citrus fruit paste, milk and eggs at speed 1 for 4 minutes. Then knead (in the traditional manner, with a dough hook) for 10 minutes at speed 2. Shape into a ball and leave to rise for 45 minutes at approximately 25°C before rolling out onto a 60x40 cm baking sheet then chill rapidly in the freezer. Refrigerate until the dough reaches 4°C. Flatten the butter to cover 2/3 of the rolled out dough. Fold into 3, covering the butter with the remaining dough. Give the dough a double turn, freeze for 10 minutes then refrigerate for 10 minutes to give it time to relax. Give a single turn then chill once more. The dough is now ready to use.

    wide strips. Use a pastry brush to lightly brush water onto the dough. Roll the dough back onto itself. Refrigerate the rolls then cut out 2.5 cm wide (22 g) cylinders and place in greased 4.5 cm high x 5 cm diameter ring moulds. Leave to rise for approximately 2h at 25°C. Once risen, glaze and insert the garnish firmly into the bottom of the roll. Bake at 165°C on a baking tray with holes for approximately 17 minutes. Glaze while hot with maple syrup to finish the rolls.
