A cronut is a combination of a croissant and a donut – and let’s be honest, we can’t imagine a better one! Thereby, the buttery puff pastry of a croissant is cut out like a doughnut and then deep-fried. Our new recipe shows how you can easily make them at home:
Preparation time: approx. 20 minutes
Ingredients:
2 packs of croissant dough
1/2 packet of vanilla pudding
250 ml whipped cream
some sugar
Preparation:
Remove the croissant dough from the packet, then overlap the dough pieces at the ends and press down to form a large sheet of dough. Fold the dough and roll out with a rolling pin. Repeat this step 2 times. This gives the cronuts their typical layers. Now cut out approx. 8 pieces of dough with a round cutter (e.g. a large cup or glass; a shot glass is ideal for the hole in the middle).
Turn on the deep fryer and heat the oil. While the oil is heating, cook the pudding according to the instructions on the package. Then, cover with foil and leave to cool until lukewarm. Fry the pastry pieces in the hot oil for about 4 minutes on each side and then drain on kitchen paper. Roll the drained, warm cronuts in sugar and leave to cool. Now, fill the custard into a piping bag and fill the pastries with the cream.
