I made cronut, which means pastry donut or croissant+donut. Actually, I never ate this.. so I don’t know the exact taste. But I believe it’s similar.
It’s crunch outside and a little bit chewy inside. It’s just like a fried croissant. I heard inside cronut, they fill with custard cream or vanilla cream. So I did that, but it didn’t taste good than I thought.
Maybe my cream recipe wasn’t fit with this cronut.
Ingredients:
100ml(1/3cup plus 1Tbsp) warm milk
4g(1tsp) instant dry yeast
30g(2Tbsp) sugar
1 egg
3g(1/2tsp) vanilla extract
250g(1cup plus 3/4cup) bread flour
2g(1/4tsp) salt
125g(9Tbsp) unsalted butter
Notes:
For better taste, you can place in fridge about 1 day before you fry the dough.
