How to Make Croissants at Home

- Making croissants at home can take a while, but it is definitely worth the effort. I wouldn't necessarily say they're hard to make. They just ask more of you, but that's because they give more too.
This is a small recipe! It makes about five. I normally see larger recipes that make eight to twelve croissants, but if you're living by yourself or just with one person that can be a lot. Also if it's your first try and you mess up, you end up using a lot of butter too.
INGREDIENTS
For dough (you'll need a kitchen scale)
202g bread flour (important to use bread flour!)
55g milk
55g warm water (preferably at 100 °F or 38 °C, you can also touch the water with the back of your index finger, it should be lightly warmer than your body temperature)
4g kosher salt (or 1 tsp)
25g sugar
5g active dry yeast*
10g unsalted butter
*Mix the yeast with the warm water and leave it for 5-10 minutes before incorporating it into the dough. Also, make sure it's active dry, not instant yeast.
For butter block
125g unsalted butter (Or 1 stick of butter plus 1½ tbsp)
Notes:
- On the first day, make the dough at night! It only needs 8 to 12 hours in the fridge overnight. Start laminating the dough on the morning of the second day. This is because if you leave the dough in the fridge for more than 8-12 hours after first making the dough, the yeast will start to die. On the third day take it out early morning from the freezer and let it defrost in the fridge until it is malleable again. Then go ahead and roll out one final time and shape!
- Try to use good quality butter. Regular butter at the grocery store has 80% butterfat. The higher the butterfat content, the better the lamination. Use butter that has around 82% to 84% butterfat. I use Kerrygold and Vermont creamery.
Got sent here from that gorgeous twit pic of croissants, only to be greeted by a gorgeous video of croissants. Great work
Same and I'm already making some already on day 2 of the process lol
this whole video was therapy for me
I'm so glad it has that effect
If you keep making videos like this, you’ll go far. This was by far the most pleasing video I’ve watched on CZcams. Can’t wait to see you grow and and get the recognition this and your channel deserve. Salam
wa alaikum asalam brother. I cannot express in words how much this means to me. i put all my effort into this and am just trying to spread some positivity iA, the best I can say is thank you, may Allah bless you!
That is absolute perfection. I can't believe that video was 14 minutes long, I felt completely relaxed and amazed the whole time. Seeing the end result put a huge smile on my face. I can't wait to make these myself.
Found this through Twitter. This video was 14 minutes of peace. Very therapeutic.
And I wish I had the patience to make it because it looks so delicious and tempting!
Watching the entire thing without skipping at all, oh my god this is so therapeutic! The croissants look so beautiful I could cry. You really are amazing!
You make so much effort I these videos yet it's simple and beautiful, you deserve so much more subscribers I love your work
thank you so much for your kind words! 😊 im really glad you like it and thank you for appreciating the effort, just trying my best
Your videos are so satisfying tbh 🥺
This video is an absolute piece of art!
Your videos are so calming, and very educational. I loved watching! :)
This is the most relaxing channel 😌.
Gonna give these a try .
Thank you 😊.
💕I just LOVE all your videos! 💕 Amazing skills and great job!!👍😊👍
I wanna try baking those...Thanks for sharing
Definitely sharing this video ❤️
You did a great job showcasing the process of making croissants! Well done 👏
I LOVE to bake and I am so happy to have found your page. Thanks to twitter. Your videos are so pleasing to watch and definitely give you that impulse to just go and start baking right now.
Keep up the great work. Loving it!
Such a delightful video. You're an artist.
This is beautiful, thank you. I found you on twitter and now I feel ✨ blessed✨. I'll try to make this recipe, it looks so relaxing and easy💛
This is so beautiful and relaxing
I'll definitely try to make them one day and I'll be following this tutorial
Baking has become my therapy. I love this video. I’m definitely making these this week! Thank you!
This is so well done, both the croissants and the video. What an artist!
Beautifully edited, and with such precision. A joy to watch
I saw on twitter your Pistacchio Croissants 💚
wow this is a lot a work, mad respect 🙌🏽👏🏽
This was a superb tutorial 👍 thankyou ! The croissants look amazing, anyone could get lost in those layers 😍
I used this as my 3rd try for making croissants after finding mostly recipes that made far more than I needed (and flopped). This has been my most successful attempt yet! Any error was on my end since I need more practice at keeping the dough the same thickness throughout the rolling process and making sure the butter doesn't come through either. Even with the listed issues I still made some fabulous tasting croissants. They're not the most most evenly shaped in the world but I did achieve layers in dough so Ill just practice some more. I'm making this my go to practice recipe since they make a small batch which is just enough for me and my small household. Thanks again for sharing with us!
I'm really glad you tried them!! Yeah I realised so many recipes were for larger batches and I've wasted a lot of butter practicing myself.
I think getting the lamination on point just takes some time honestly, once you get it though there's so much you can so with laminated dough! Let me know if you need any help, thanks so much for your feedback
Watching you to cook is like a therapy as well ;)
these look amazing!! mad respect for having the patience to do that entire process,, the video is super calming to watch too, this is just beautiful all around :)!
First time here on your youtube. Been following on tiktok and twitter. You are now definitely my fav youtuber 🥐
Watching this was SO therapeutic! Brought the calm I needed. Thanks!
Wow. Both baking and the video, are works of art! Exquisite!
Watching the video has been meditative! Thank you!
So soothing to see this making of Croissants
I’m obsesseddddddd!!! You’re toooo goooddd!😍😍😍😍
This is just perfect! Waiting to try it out myself...God bless you for making this video 💕
Can’t wait to try your recipe in my next Croissant baking daaay☺️ I wonder where you bought your rolling silicone matt? It’s so nice! Thank you for sharing your recipes!!!
I am a huge fan of aesthetic baking videos. I’ve watched a fair share of Aesthetic South Korean cafe vlogs. I can easily say that your videos give me the exact same vibe! ❤️
Indeed a therapy 😍 the result is just beautiful❤
This is a piece of art.
these croissants look incredible oh my god thank you so much
Came here through your Twitter account but bro, this is amazing! Well done. Great video, maybe one day I’ll try but wow had no idea the work behind making a croissant. Automatic subscription to your channel. Blessings bro, inshallah more success your way !!
This has been such a pleasure to watch and to learn from your experience, I love to bake and I have made croissant in the past, however your video was very inspiring to do this again, Thank you.
This is so theraputic... I am more of a visual learner and like to read instructions along with any new material. So having calming piano music and beautiful camera work was really impressive! I can't wait to try this recipe out!
This was so beautiful and so soothing to watch. Thank you for taking the time to film and upload!
thank you so much for your feedback, and thank you for watching! 😊
even tho i thought i was going to make croissants and this video convinced me not to anymore.. this was sooo pleasing to watch before bed i can't wait to watch more of these
I absolutely LOVE your video!!! Your calm, simple, to the point style is so very refreshing! BY FAR my favorite instructional video on CZcams; especially food! I am very excited to make these! Thank you and many blessings to you and your loved ones. You made this old lady very happy tonight. 🥐
🙏🥰
Perfect homemade croissants! Nice video!
i always love your videos, they're so calming and i really hope more people notice your channel bc of all the hard work you put into making them so cohesive! idk if you will see this, but may i ask if it's possible to use instant yeast instead? i understand that means i don't have to proof it in warm water beforehand, but i'm afraid that if i omit the water altogether and just add the instant yeast to the dough mix it wouldn't have the same consistency as there's less liquid in it altogether :') thank you!
I'm bowled over by the zen in this process video. Therapeutic indeed. Kind people make the best bakers I'm told. 😊💝 Best wishes for more such pure joy recipe vids!
I'm loving your videos, I'm a pastry chef myself but I believe it's really hard to explain with this precise detail. ❤ Keep posting
This video just made my day ❤️
I saw your laminated brioche video and then came here. Am keen to try. Thank you for the video. I love that you don't talk through the video.
I found this recipe through TikTok a while back and I have been trying to find a good time to make it since it took three days. I am going to say, this bread is amazing. They are so delicious and are definitely worth the work. I did make some mistakes since it was the first time I baked any type of read but the recipe is super easy to follow and they come out amazingly good. I will totally try to be really good at making these from now on.
I’ve watched a million CZcams videos and I can tell that your talent lies both in your cooking and your videography. You’ll go far!

Hello :) I want to thank you for your video! I always think that process of making croissants is very difficult and layers are not possible to be reached ahah) But I was wrong! Your recipe is the best! The dough is so soft and easy to work! The result is overwhelming definitely! I had some problems with forming and baking but they weren’t very serious. I will try to do my best in the future)
Sorry for mistakes, English isn’t my native language.
Best wishes,
Diana :)
Me encanta tu delicadeza a la hora de cocinar, me trasmitis mucha paz ( ojalá en algún momento tenga subtitulos en español) saludos 🥰

Wow!! It’s perfect
i definitely cried at the end. thank you for this
No wonder croissants are so damn delicious. They’re a labour of love to create. Wow! 🥰
Delicious, so mantab... Thanks
You inspire me so much, thank you for sharing this with the world. This work of art reminds me of this quote from Daisaku Ikeda: “Art is to the spirit what bread is to the body; through art we find oneness with a transcendental entity, breathe its rhythm and absorb the energy we need for spiritual renewal. Art also functions to purify the inner being, to bring the spiritual uplift that Aristotle called catharsis.” Shine on!
Wohoo!amazing.
I seen ur double chocolate croissant video on tiktok and was wondering if you could either make a vid on those specifically or just let me know the changes to make to this recipe along with how to make the filling!! I have a fatal tree-nut allergy and chocolate croissants are MY FAVORITE but I can rarely ever have them from a a bakery bc there’s always cross contamination! I’d love to know how to make them, they looked so delicious 🥺!!
I love the way you made your video so calm and beautiful . going to try Ur recipe today and let u know the result .
( A recommendation natural sounds might be much nicer and calmer than the music ) bless
I'm working on my bread learning project of 50 days and croissants have been a bitch, tried em 3 times so far, this gives me hope, thank you.
Salam brother your videos are so mesmerizing that's i couldn't stop subscribing your channel so that in future when I have free time I'll bake all this stuff cuz you explain everything so well. Many Parents need to watch your videos so they can learn how important it's for a child to persue his passion irrespective of gender and societal norms .
May Allah bless your hands more 🌟🌸
Perfect 👍
Amazing video! What kind of butter did you use, and can I use regular unsalted butter for the recipe? Keep up the amazing work!
u make this look so easy
Hello, I was quite reluctant to do this today. You see, Ive made too much croissants from recipes Ive seen youtube which resulted to too many yields. Cant stress enough how many butter Ive wasted before. When I saw how little flour your recipe required, I said why not. It was my first time getting beautiful air pockets. I was jumping around out of excitement. Thank you so much!
Awws
Beautiful video, thank you. They look delicious!
(Ilvy! Bald ist Mittwoch hehehe unsere Croissants werden bestimmt genauso super)
Favourite food video on youtube 🙌🏼🥐⭐
PERFECT!!!!!!
Here from cooking chaos's youtube channel. They showed a picture of your croissants in their recent video, they look amazing❤
thanks for this❤️
Thank you for the recipe, I look forward to trying it out. I was wondering, will this recipe work with pastry flour as well?
I love your videos, keep it up ❤️
thank you so much it means everything to me
Wow, più delicato di una donna direi, complimenti! Mi piacerebbe avere la tua pazienza per preparare i croissant che mi piacciono da morire.
the first time a video recipe about croissants has made me tear up. I will try this
Tried this recipe with instant yeast and maida (which I think is stronger than ap flour), changed the time frame so that it took about 4-5 hours with the resting. I didnt achieve the honeycomb but it was very light and delicious. Would definitely make again. Thank you for the recipe.
cant believe i watched a 14 min video abt a man doing his little thing this is so good
came here after watching cooking chaos... great work!!
