I made these Almost Almond Croissant with a sheet of puff pastry and half a log of almond paste. Consider this a max volume weekend treat. ⁣ ⁣ You’ll need:⁣ - A thawed sheet of puff pastry, fridge cold⁣ - 3.5 ounces or half a log of almond paste cut into 12 even-ish pieces⁣ - An egg beaten for egg wash, with a splash of heavy cream and a glug of vanilla bean paste for extra luxury⁣ - Sliced almonds⁣ - Powdered sugar ⁣ ⁣ Lightly roll a sheet of puff pastry and slice into six rectangles. ⁣ Brush each rectangle with egg wash. Arrange each with two slices almond paste. Pull two corners of the puff pastry up and over the paste, pressing lightly to seal. Brush lightly with egg wash. ⁣ ⁣ Transfer to a small, parchment lined baking pan and allow to rest in the freezer while the oven preheats to 425 degrees f. ⁣ ⁣ Bake from chilled for 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and again lightly brush with egg wash. Top with almond slices and bake for 6-8 minutes more. Keep an eye as to not burn the almonds. ⁣ ⁣ Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar and enjoying warm. #breakfastrecipe #breakfastbaking #croissantbreakfast #easybreakfast #croissants #almondcroissants
