First Attempt at Croissants

I was always really intimidated by the thought of making croissants, so I kept putting it off until now. I finally gave it a try yesterday, and they turned out delicious…

I definitely struggled with shaping them and don’t think I did it very well, but what matters most is that they taste good, right? I’d love any tips you have for improving!

First attempt so perfect…Awesome!!

IMO that is a bakery worthy croissant! It looks delicious, good job :slight_smile:

First attempt??? Geez

As someone who’s been baking for over 10 years I feel attacked that this is your first time making these and they look that good…:sob: care to share the recipe?

I mostly used Claire’s YouTube video as a reference, found it easier to follow along

First attempt wow. Even my first attempt during baking lab didn’t come out this nice. These look awesome

They are high level pastries OP!

That looks absolutely delicious!

Do you have fingers??

Lol, I didn’t realize you couldn’t see them till you mentioned it, they’re hidden by the croissant😅
