Condensed milk croissants
For breakfast, enjoy these delicious croissants made with condensed milk. Very easy to make, they are accessible to everyone, whether you are a beginner or an experienced cook.

Ingredients
Materials
- Stand mixer
Preparation
In the bowl of the stand mixer, add the flour, crumbled yeast, and sweetened condensed milk. Start kneading at low speed, and then add the milk.
Once the dough is well-formed, add the softened butter, and knead for 10 minutes. Make sure the butter is well incorporated and not stuck to the sides of the bowl. Then let this dough rise for 2 hours at room temperature.
The dough should have risen well. Roll it out to form a large rectangle.
Cut this rectangle in half, and cut triangles with a base of about 8 cm. Roll each triangle into a croissant, starting from the base. Be careful not to roll them too tightly.
Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, making sure to tuck the tip under the croissant. Let them rise for 1 hour at room temperature, then brush them with milk.
Bake them for 12 minutes at 350°F (180°C). Keep a close eye on them, as they bake quickly!
And there you have it, your condensed milk croissants are ready!
Observations
What makes condensed milk croissants different from traditional croissants?
Condensed milk croissants are easier to make and result in a softer texture compared to traditional croissants, which require more complex techniques and ingredients.
Can I use other types of milk in this recipe?
Yes, you can substitute regular milk with almond milk, soy milk, or any other milk alternative, but it may slightly alter the flavor and texture.
How can I enhance the flavor of my condensed milk croissants?
You can enhance the flavor by adding vanilla extract to the dough or by spreading jam or chocolate spread on them after baking for an extra indulgent treat.
What is the best way to store leftover croissants?
Store leftover croissants in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze them for longer storage, reheating them in the oven before serving.
Can I make the dough ahead of time?
