Ingredients

DOUGH

  • 1 tsp granulated sugar
  • 3 1/4 tsp (10 g) active dry yeast
  • Slightly over ½ cup (130 ml) of warm milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 ½ cups plus 2 tbsp (315 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 ½ tbsp (35 g) granulated sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 3 ½ tbsp (50 g) unsalted room temperature butter

FILLING

  • ½ cup (150 g) Nutella

EGG WASH

  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp milk

Instructions

  1. Start by preparing the yeast mixture. In a mixing bowl or the bowl from the stand mixer, combine 1 tsp granulated sugar, 3 ¼ tsp (10 g) active dry yeast, and slightly over ½ cup (130 ml) warm milk. Let the mixture rest for 10-15 minutes. It should become foamy.
  2. To the same bowl, add 2 eggs, 2 ½ cups plus 2 tbsp (315 g) all-purpose flour, 2 ½ tbsp (35 g) granulated sugar, and ½ tsp salt. Knead in the stand mixer for 15 minutes, using the dough hook attachment at medium-low speed. After 15 minutes, add 3 ½ tbsp (50 g) unsalted room temperature butter and knead for 10 more minutes.
  3. Let the dough proof for 1 hour and 30 minutes in a warm environment, 81°F 27°C.
  4. The dough should double in size. Roll out the dough to about 45 cm x 20 cm (17.7 in x 7.9 in). Trim the edges to make them even. Mark the bottom of the dough every 8.5 cm and the top starting at 4.15 cm, making every 8.5 thereafter. Spread ½ cup (150 g) of Nutella all over the dough.
  5. Cut the dough into triangles, then gently stretch each triangle to prepare for shaping.
  6. Roll each triangle from the base to the tip to create a classic croissant shape. Make sure the tip is tucked underneath to prevent unrolling during baking.
  7. Place them in a baking pan lined with parchment paper, making sure to keep a distance between them as they grow in the oven. Let them proof for 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat the oven to 355°F 180 °C. Beat 1 egg and mix it with 1 tbsp of milk. Brush this mixture all over the croissant brioche. Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
