Homemade croissants with a little butter

A simplified version (and with a little butter) of the classic puffed croissants. You can make them empty, or stuffed with jam, cream, honey or whatever you like!

Homemade croissants with a little butter step 1

step 1

First of all, melt the yeast in the milk at room temperature in a large bowl or kneader (among the ingredients I added the vaccine but you can also easily use a vegetable milk of your choice, slightly revising the doses)

After this first leavening I spread the dough until I get a disc, from which I get 8 wedges from which, in turn, I get 8 balls of dough

At this point I can leave the croissants empty or stuff them adding a teaspoon of stuffing at the base of the wedges (in the widest part to be clear), then roll each clove giving it the classic shape of the croissant
