Prep Method 10

  1. 1.In a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix the dough packet ingredients until combined. Switch to a hook attachment and mix on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes, or until a smooth, slightly sticky dough comes together.
  2. 2.Shape the dough and place in an oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it bulk proof for 60-90 minutes at room temperature.
  3. 3.Roll the dough into a rectangle about ⅜-inch thick, wrap in plastic wrap and freeze for about 30 minutes, or until firm but not frozen. Alternatively, you can refrigerate the dough for 8 hours or overnight.
  4. 4.Soften the butter packet until it is pliable, but still cold. Shape the butter into a square ½ the size of the rectangle of dough packet. The butter packet should be of similar consistency as the dough packet when assembling them together.
  5. 5.Place the butter inside the dough and fold over to make a package.
  6. 6.Give the paton 2 double turns, resting the dough for 30 minutes in between each turn.
  7. 7.Roll the croissant dough to ¼-inch thick.
  8. 8.With a sharp knife or croissant cutter, cut 8-inch long x 4-inch wide triangles out of the dough.
  9. 9.Shape, egg wash, proof, and egg wash a second time.
  10. 10.Bake at 375°F (191°C) for the first ½ of the baking, then lower the oven to 350°F (177°C) and continue baking until deep golden brown.
