To prepare this recipe, you will need:
- 50 g of fresh yeast or 14 g of dry instant yeast (2 packages),
- approx. 80 ml of warm milk,
- 500 g of wheat flour,
- 200 g of melted butter,
- 4 eggs (3+1),
- 3 heaping tablespoons of sugar,
- a pinch of salt,
- favorite jam,
- granulated sugar or powdered sugar for sprinkling.
In a large bowl, mix crushed yeast (or add instant yeast) with warm milk. Then add sifted flour with melted butter, sugar, salt, and finally add 3 eggs and mix the ingredients thoroughly. Knead the dough thoroughly with your hands (preferably when they are warm). Add more flour if necessary.
Divide the kneaded dough into 4 equal parts. Roll out each portion into a circle (approx. 25 cm in diameter) with a thickness of approx. 3 mm. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough through the middle to make 10 triangle-shaped pieces. Place a teaspoon of filling (jam, jam or chocolate cream) with a compact consistency on the end of the wider corner of the triangle. Roll each piece of dough towards the pointed end, form a croissant, and tuck in the sides to create a neat shape.
Place the formed croissants on a large baking tray lined with baking paper. Remember to leave spaces so that the croissants do not stick together while baking. Brush the top of each croissant with beaten egg. You can additionally sprinkle with crystal sugar.
Put the tray with croissants in the oven preheated to 180°C for about 25 minutes. Remove the baked quick yeast croissants from the oven to cool and store them covered to keep them fresh longer.
