Tips for Best Results

  • To prevent sticking, line the baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  • If you like, use a piping bag to spread the frangipane on the croissant halves.
  • Don’t add too much frangipane filling, or the croissants will become soggy. Two tablespoons is an ideal quantity per croissant.
  • These croissants are best eaten the day they are cooked. However, you can prepare them ahead of time and freeze them unbaked. Place them in the oven frozen, and allow a few extra minutes to bake.
