Vegan Almond Croissants

Vegan Almond Croissants
For: 2 croissantsDifficulty: EasyPreparation: 15 minCooking: 20 min
And here’s another recipe from the Muscade grimoire (my little café/patisserie that I sold in October for those who are new here 😍). Almond croissants are best made with day-old croissants! That's the beauty of it! I made these using my homemade croissants, but you could use store-bought vegan croissants like those from Arhoma, which you can find frozen or fresh, or even with full industrial canned croissant dough sold in supermarkets—I've never tried it, but it's accidentally vegan 🥰 It's also a great way to recycle old croissants you might get from a Too Good To Go basket, for example! The idea is to dip them in a simple syrup to moisten them and add a bit of surface sugar that will make them crispy again when baked. Then, you fill them with almond cream and pop them in the oven! You’ll see, it’s super easy 😍

  • Melt the margarine.
  • In a bowl, mix the almond flour, sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Add the melted margarine, vanilla, and plant-based milk. Mix to obtain an almond cream. Chill in the fridge.
  • Prepare the syrup: heat the sugar and water in a saucepan. When it starts to simmer, remove from heat.
  • Cut the croissants lengthwise to open them like a sandwich, without cutting all the way through. Dip them in the syrup to moisten them all over.
  • Fill the inside of the croissants with the almond cream, keeping 2 spoonfuls of almond cream aside to add on top of the croissants.
  • Sprinkle the top with sliced almonds; they will stick thanks to the thin layer of almond cream you placed on top.
  • Bake for 20 minutes at 355°F (180°C). Once out of the oven, you can sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving 😍
