Hey, I'm John Connell, and today on Preppy Kitchen, we're making some buttery, flaky, homemade croissants.

So let's get started.

We're starting off this recipe with two -thirds of a cup of warmed whole milk.

80 to 90 degrees is great.

To the milk, I'm adding a tablespoon of granulated sugar to give our yeast some food to eat.

They're going to be hungry.

And now we're going to add one envelope or two and a quarter teaspoons of active dry yeast.

Not instant.

Give this a stir and we're gonna set it aside for five to 10 minutes

or until the yeast is nice and foamy.

These croissants have steps.

This is not in the quick and easy recipe.

This is I wanna challenge, I wanna make something and have a sense of accomplishment.

So I wanna tell you right now, do not use yeast that is bad for this recipe because it'll be very sad.

It won't turn out nicely.

You wanna see a nice foamy head and if it doesn't have a nice foamy head, start over again with a new packet of yeast.

While this rises, I'm going to set that aside and measure out my flour.

For this recipe, you'll want 4 cups or 480 grams of all -purpose flour.

This is one of my most requested recipes.

I'm so excited to share it with you.

A proper croissant is a beautiful laminated dough.

So you have layers of a yeast -leavened dough with butter.

Butter dough, butter dough, butter dough, and we're going to make these pages.

But first, we have to make our dough.

And when you're doing that, you wanna have the correct amount of flour.

So using a scale is definitely the best practice.

If you don't have one, don't scoop the flour, sprinkle it into your measuring cup and level it off.

You don't wanna pack it in.

For some contrast, we're adding two and a half teaspoons of salt.

One, two, and a half.

And for a kiss of sweetness, but more importantly, some softness to the dough,

I'm gonna add the remaining three tablespoons of granulated sugar.

Whenever you add sugar to a dough, you're gonna get a more delicate texture.

It'll become more cakey, if you will.

Our scale's done, so grab a whisk, and we're gonna mix it up.

By the way, if you like my videos, go ahead and hit that subscribe button.

There's two new recipes every single week.

Once you make this recipe, you're gonna see that it's actually not that hard to make a proper laminated dough, and you'll have a world of pastries open up to you.

There's so many different things you can do with a lovely laminated dough.

Okay, nice and mixed up.

Grab your stand mixer and we're just waiting to have some beautiful foamy yeast.

We're using milk and not water here, so the yeast does have to work a little bit harder and it needs some more time.

My yeast has bloomed nicely and it's time to add half a cup of cold water right in.

i'm going to add this right in for this recipe you'll

want to use european butter not the regular american style butter

european butter will be softer more yellow in color usually

and the main difference is it's a higher fat content

so it's perfect for this as opposed to the american style

which has a little bit more water in it

so that's four tablespoons or a quarter cup of very softened european butter

and i microwaved this

because it was a little too firm at room temperature we're going to pop our dough hook on

and mix this up low speed for about a minute or until the dough is shaggy and coming together

by the way you have a choice here you can start this recipe in the morning

and finish it in the evening but this is a breakfast pastry

so it's more traditional i think to have it broken up over two days.

You start the dough on one day and you finish it in the morning.

In addition to the time management of it all, the overnight rest time will give the gluten some time to relax while still keeping the butter nice and cold.

The enemy here is heat because if you're making this on a hot summer day and your air conditioning is broken,

it's basically impossible to keep the butter cold enough to keep those pages separated.

You want that nice lamination which requires a thin, cold layer of butter.

My dough's balled up really nicely.

I have some structure developing, and now we're going to shape it.

So, our mixer's done.

Grab a good length of plastic wrap.

Turn the dough onto the plastic wrap.

I'm gonna pat this into a square shape now.

and your dough should be about a half inch thick so we're going to wrap this tightly now

and refrigerate it for half an hour this will let the dough rest

and relax a bit

so it's more easy to handle in the meantime we're going

to make our butter pat it's the other half of the croissant

while our dough's chilling grab one and a quarter cup of cold european butter

and just let it hang out on the countertop for about 15 minutes to warm slightly

if you're not used to using this butter, it gets softer much quicker than a regular butter.

It's the higher fat content.

This part of the recipe, which is pure butter, is called the beurrage.

Beurre is butter in French.

And I have a horrible accent, so please don't criticize.

We're gonna cut two pieces of parchment paper into 12 by 12 inch squares. And repeat.

Once that's done, it's time to cut your butter so we're going to cut tablespoon -sized pieces.

And you should have 20 pieces for 20 tablespoons.

If you're working in a commercial bakery, this would be fairly automated.

You'd have machines to help you out.

But we're going to do it by hand the old -fashioned way.

Now we're going to lay these out into a 4x5 grid, right in the center of the parchment.

My tablespoons are not perfect, but that's totally okay.

Push them together.

Okay, that's good.

For the next step, you'll want a rolling pin and probably a bench scraper or a big knife.

Cover your butter up with your parchment paper and you're gonna roll and pound it into a thin sheet.

You'll have a 10 -inch square that's about an eighth of an inch thick.

After you've pounded it a bit, you can roll.

And if you have a rolling pin with bumpers, that could be very handy for you.

Some of the butter's gonna start coming apart, so periodically you can lift the parchment paper off and just kind of scooch it back in place.

If this is looking really lumpy, you can scrape and smooth the top, but so far, this looks pretty nice.

Okay, back on and more rolling.

You can cheat a little bit if things are getting kind of out of shape.

A lot of people watch the channel kind of just to relax, and I get that.

100

It's very relaxing to watch people do some work, but they don't have the intention of making this recipe.

101

If you're watching this video, let me know in the comments if you actually plan on making this

102

or you're just vaguely curious about the process paper back on

103

and we'll continue okay we're getting close this is actually better to do on a cold countertop

104

when you're doing this step your butter is going to become softer as you work it

105

but it should still be cool to the touch

106

if things are warming up lift it up

107

and goes right into the fridge to cool out cool down

108

your butter is going to want to make a circle so

109

So you might be kind of cutting and piecing things in to keep that square shape.

110

The shape is actually quite important.

111

As you develop a better technique, you'll find this becomes easier and easier, but don't be afraid to just piece things in.

112

Here, the only thing that matters is the end result.

113

Okay, we're getting so close.

114

So we have a 10 by 10 -ish inch square -ish shape.

115

That looks good to me.

116

I'm gonna cover this back up and this goes into the refrigerator for 10 minutes to chill a bit, but not harden.

117

So don't leave this in for an hour.

118

It's really about 10 minutes just so it kind of gets some of its strength back.

119

Everything's rested and chilled.

120

So now we're gonna lightly flour our surface

121

and I'm using a pastry mat today just because it really helps for things not sticking.

122

Place it onto your counter.

123

I'm gonna lightly flour the top as well, as well as my rolling pin.

124

and this will get rolled out into a 10 by 20

125

inch rectangle once it's rolled out it should be about a

126

quarter of an inch thick you can kind of lift it up to

127

which helps corral it back into shape today we're making a

128

basic butter croissant a basic butter croissant as you get more comfortable you can begin adding fillings and flavorings

129

well well well after just a little bit of rolling we have a 20 by 10 inch rectangle

130

and i can just pat this back into a nice rectangular shape no rounded corners for us this looks great

131

if you need to sharpen up the corners you can brush

132

any flower off the top there should be none left over

133

and make sure the long side is facing you i took my butter out just a couple minutes ago

134

and And at this point, it's nice and cool, but it won't crack when I bend it.

135

So you can give it a little test.

136

And if it cracks, leave it on the countertop for three to five more minutes.

137

If not, you are ready for the next step.

138

We're gonna lift it up and flip this butter side down onto the center of our dough.

139

Now lift your parchment paper off.

140

Now you're gonna fold the dough over so it meets in the middle.

141

If it shrinks back, just pull it out a little bit.

142

Pinch that center seam together so it doesn't disconnect.

143

Now we're gonna be very gentle and just roll with a rolling pin to make sure everything's nice and connected.

144

One more set of pinches, so here we're going to make sure our butter is fully sealed in.

145

you want everything to look kind of perfect even at this stage

146

so grab the bench scraper or a big knife

147

and just square up the sides especially on the pinched edges

148

things might have gotten a bit lumpy I'm gonna lightly flour the top I'm using a pastry mat

149

so I know nothing will stick to it

150

if you're rolling things out on your countertop you should add a little bit more flour too The height is fine, the width needs to increase, so keep it at 10 inches high.

151

We want 18 inches long.

152

Nice even force here because we don't want really anything to rip open.

153

And we're being slow because there's a thick layer of butter that's not moving as fast as the dough here.

154

I see there's a little air bubble right at the edge here.

155

I don't want that to continue, so I'm gonna pierce it and just push the air out, then pinch it back together.

156

So at the moment, I have one layer of butter, two layers of dough

157

and everything is really thick you want to have a ton of layers think of those croissants

158

that you buy at a nice bakery they have all these layers to them

159

so this will only happen by rolling and folding and rolling

160

and folding and rolling

161

and folding until you've worked up those beautiful layers you'll notice for this part i'm using a straight rolling pin

162

so important and it's going to be much easier

163

if your rolling pin is fairly long the shorter ones

164

or a french one which is tapered

165

which i love for making pie dough for example is not going to be great for this

166

so find your straightest longest rolling pin for the easiest set of rolls and

167

if you're looking at this thinking no i don't like this

168

at all i'm not going to do this i understand

169

and you can click up here for my how to make rough puff video

170

which is kind of like the cheat version of a laminated dough it's much easier

171

and you get a similar effects

172

but not the same keep rolling out a little bit of rolling later

173

and we have an 18 by 10 inch rectangle

174

so we're ready for the next step chances are

175

that your edges are a little bit lumpy and I know for sure

176

that there is a gap on either edge where the butter is not

177

but the dough is so we're gonna trim this

178

up if you had any excess flour just always brush

179

that off we never want flour before we fold

180

because that'll prevent sticking it's time for our first fold

181

so imagine they're folding a piece of paper to fit into an envelope this should be divided into thirds

182

and you're gonna fold this over there we go this is why a pastry mat comes in so handy.

183

Now you want to grab a baking sheet, line it with parchment paper, and we're going to transfer the dough right over.

184

That's the easiest way for me.

185

Grab a bench scraper and we're just going to neaten the edges up.

186

I want a nice beautiful rectangle.

187

Cover this tightly with plastic wrap and this goes into the fridge for half an hour.

188

Every time you work with this the butter starts getting dangerously soft

189

so in between each step we're gonna pop this into the

190

fridge to chill out the gluten in the dough will rest the butter will firm up

191

and our next step will be easier this marks the end

192

of my first turn there are four turns in total into

193

the fridge you go after half an hour of chill time lightly flour your surface once again

194

and even though Now I'm using a pastry mat here, which is not sticky.

195

I want the dough to roll evenly, meaning it's not gonna be forced apart, it's gonna just spread nicely.

196

Unwrap your dough, lightly flour the top as well.

197

What's important here is to keep the short side short and the long side long.

198

So we're gonna roll this back out into a 10 by 18 inch rectangle, just being sure that we're not trying to change the orientation of the shape.

199

And you're allowed to move things around, Just like when you're making a pie crust, you want to keep it moving so you are sure that nothing's getting stuck.

200

If you see any air bubbles, you can try and force them out of the side.

201

And then let's check the dimensions every once in a while.

202

This recipe is a Virgo's dream.

203

All right, this looks pretty good.

204

It's 18 by 10, and if you need to, you can kind of just scooch things around so the lines are more straight.

205

If the short ends look really bad, you can give them a trim.

206

Otherwise, I would just kind of pat and scooch as needed.

207

You do not want to cut the long sides because here's the deal.

208

When this bakes, some parts have to be sealed.

209

Otherwise, you'll have leakages of butter that are unfortunate.

210

Just gonna mark off my thirds, six.

211

six there's any extra flour on the top you're going to remove

212

that just like you did before fold it over I have some extra flour on the bottom

213

so brush that off and now fold the other edge over

214

giving us the lightest of rolls

215

and just a little straighten now we can return this to our parchment lined pan recover it in plastic

216

if you have waxed cloth you could use

217

that as well by the way and we'll refrigerate another 30 minutes

218

and repeat this all over again we're halfway through the folding

219

lightly sprinkle your surface once again for our third roll we

220

are just building up layer after layer here lightly flour the top lightly flour your rolling pin

221

and another 10 by 18 inch rectangle is in our future

222

and remember you you can feel free to keep moving things along.

223

Square it up as you move along.

224

And by the way, you can click up here for my Paris bakery tour part one.

225

I'll put links to both in the description box below.

226

In part two, I examine some of the best croissant in Paris.

227

And yes, these are a morning pastry.

228

You would never try and order a croissant in the afternoon and otherwise you'd be corrected.

229

So really what we're doing here is just building up layer after layer of laminated dough.

230

And honestly, once you do this recipe a few times, you will not be at all frightened of it.

231

Actually, even after the first time, you'll be like, this is so much easier than I thought it was.

232

Are there a lot of steps?

233

Yes, there are a lot of steps.

234

This is not a quick and easy recipe like apple muffins

235

but is it technically like really difficult not really as long

236

as you bought the right butter your kitchen is a regular

237

temperature like not super hot not icy cold you should be

238

fine 18 by 10 we are ready to fold squaring it off give it a fold then

239

and a brush i don't want any excess flour

240

here

241

and another fold just gonna give this the lightest of rolls

242

before I pop it back into the fridge I just want to encourage a better connection through community building

243

and rolling pins back onto your parchment paper our plastic The grab goes back on top.

244

And this goes back into the fridge for another half hour and our final fold. So close.

245

Out of the fridge, another light dusting of flour.

246

A little more flour on top.

247

And once again, we're rolling into a 10 by 18 inch rectangle.

248

if you see any butter kind of starting to pop out of either of the sides the long

249

or the short use a bench scraper

250

and just press it back in that'll happen

251

because the butter cools down the fastest on the edge

252

and as you roll you're moving a little solid piece of butter out which could pop out that's not good

253

okay just a little bit of rolling later i have a 10 by 18 inch rectangle

254

and i can give it a final fold what's easy to forget here is

255

that we're using a yeasted dough so even though we're

256

so focused on this being like layers of butter

257

and dough this is yeasted and there will be a rise

258

which will help give you that puffy lovely texture last brush just any excess flour goes away fold it into thirds,

259

removing excess flour again, and my last fold.

260

Just patting this down ever so gently.

261

Wrap your dough tightly in plastic, and we're gonna refrigerate this overnight, or for up to 18 hours.

262

When we come back, this will be ready to finish.

263

It's a new day.

264

My dough's been resting overnight, and you can see it puffed considerably my yeast were working even though it was cold and dark.

265

You wanna lightly flour your countertop now.

266

And I'm again using a pastry mat because I don't want anything to stick.

267

This dough feels so soft and puffy now.

268

We're gonna dump this out without the plastic onto our countertop.

269

I'm also gonna dust the top of this.

270

We're gonna start off nice and gentle.

271

I'm looking for pockets of air, like that's a pocket of air.

272

If you see a pocket of air, just pierce it, good.

273

If you notice any tearing of the dough, rewrap and let it sit on the countertop for five minutes just to warm up a bit more.

274

After some initial pressing, you can now begin rolling.

275

Gently at first.

276

We're gonna roll this out to a 12 by 28 inch rectangle,

277

so it's gonna be big let's try and keep it in a rectangular shape and

278

if you notice things are sticking add a little bit more

279

flour at this point in the recipe you're really on easy street

280

but you want to make sure

281

that nothing goes wrong with your precious laminated dough you spent

282

so much time on if I made fresh homemade croissants for you

283

and my praises were not being sung I'd be horrified this This took quite a while.

284

I hope you like them.

285

Your dough should be nice and pliable and stretchy after resting overnight, but you will see some pullback.

286

My dough is looking pretty nice and silky.

287

If your dough cracked or tore, not the best thing.

288

So what you want to do is brush lightly with water, pinch it back.

289

You want to re -encase that butter with the dough.

290

And then cover with plastic and let it rest for five minutes, then keep rolling.

291

We're nearly there.

292

Never mind.

293

Got some rolling to do.

294

I'm really worrying about the length as the height is going to be much easier.

295

28 by 12.

296

We are ready to cut.

297

I'm going to mark this off in four inch increments starting

298

at the bottom left on the top left side we're going to measure out two inches

299

and then from

300

that two inch mark every four inches our very fancy pastry crescents are just triangles of dough

301

that are rolled up this is making those triangles

302

so here grab a knife or a pastry cutter

303

and we're going to begin cutting this is scrap i'm going to save it

304

because every Every bit of this recipe needs cherishing.

305

Now you're just going to arrange from that top point to the bottom four inch mark and make your first proper triangle.

306

Move the ruler and you're gonna keep going.

307

At this point, if your triangles aren't perfect, a little bit of skew, it doesn't matter.

308

Give yourself some grace.

309

And I would suggest going from the thick end to the point, otherwise the pastry tends to roll up on you.

310

If you see anything sticking together, you can pull the triangle a little bit just to create some distance something very soothing

311

and methodical about all these precise cuts grab three rimmed baking

312

sheets I also suggest you cover up your precious dough with paper

313

or plastic just while you're working

314

so nothing dries out we've worked too hard to let it go to waste now you don't have to

315

but I'm lining my baking sheets with parchment paper.

316

And now we're going to begin our construction.

317

You're going to cut about half an inch from the bottom of your triangle, the thick part.

318

We want to create some more width for them, and we're going to do this by folding and stretching.

319

So create two little triangles like that.

320

My dough is pretty perfect as far as the surface consistency.

321

If there was any flour remaining, brush that away before you begin this.

322

Now we're gonna roll this up and gently pull apart with our fingers as we roll.

323

Just roll, roll, roll, gentle pressure, and now we can place this onto our baking sheet.

324

As you continue this process you'll get better and better.

325

Don't worry if the first one doesn't look perfect.

326

So we want the tip facing down and then you can gently

327

maneuver this into a c -shape these will be puffing

328

because there's yeast here and it's now at room temperature

329

so we're going to give these a lot of space about

330

six inches in between each one you'll be able to fit four to six croissants on each sheet tray give

331

that a cut pull those apart

332

and you can see the little layers of lamination here and now as we pull from the edge slightly.

333

We're going to roll this up.

334

You're going to be gentle.

335

Tipside down, just like that.

336

You'll feel more and more confident as you do each of these.

337

Don't worry about these looking as perfect as possible.

338

It's time to roll these up before the butter melts.

339

That's what I'll tell you.

340

As you work, maybe the top is a little bit more dry than the bottom, so you can flip these upside down so they stick a bit better.

341

okay we're almost done you're gonna have three beautiful trays

342

but these need time to rise and they're super rich

343

so your yeast are gonna have to work very hard hard -working yeast need more time

344

and just like that my last croissant this is actually a scrap

345

but i was able to roll it out Goes right on here, a little movement into a C -shape.

346

Lightly cover these with plastic.

347

We don't want them to dry out.

348

I'm gonna use a double sheet for each of these baking trays.

349

We're gonna leave these out for two and a half to three hours to rise at about 72 degrees Fahrenheit.

350

It should be like a nice room temperature rise.

351

Not too hot, so the butter melts.

352

Not too cold, so it takes forever.

353

Two hours into your rise time, you're gonna preheat your oven to 425, so it is very hot.

354

But don't worry, we'll be reducing the temperature ASAP.

355

First, let's get these risen.

356

Time has passed, and as promised, one of the trays is ready, the other ones aren't.

357

I just wanna show you the difference.

358

These guys puffed.

359

Look at that jiggle.

360

They're ready to go into the oven.

361

It's preheated to 425, but we need to give them an egg wash really quickly.

362

One egg and a tablespoon of heavy cream.

363

give it a good mix you want to give them an egg wash

364

but you don't want to seal the cut side so carefully

365

and gently just add a light egg wash onto the top sides

366

these are sorry these are so nice and jiggly

367

and puffed these ones are still proofing

368

so we're give them more time you're gonna find

369

that of the three one tray will be ready first

370

which makes it easy since you probably don't have three ovens

371

at the ready i'm trying to be careful right now

372

because i really have you know invested some time making these croissant for you

373

and i'd like them to be finished nicely

374

so i'm being very gentle proofed puffed jiggly

375

and egg washed my croissants ready to pop into the oven 425

376

but the moment you close the door reduce to 375

377

and you'll bake them for 15 to 20 minutes

378

or until they're a deep golden brown if you want to temp these out the internal temperature should be 190.

379

in you go and in the meantime keep an eye on your next ones

380

and start egg washing once they're puffed buttery crisp

381

and i cannot tell you how proud i am of of these little guys.

382

They came out just as I hoped they would.

383

You can see all the layers of lamination.

384

Why This Croissant Recipe Video Is Perfect for English Speaking Practice

If you’re looking to improve English pronunciation while learning something fun, this homemade croissants video is a goldmine. The host, John, speaks clearly with a friendly, conversational tone—no fast jargon, just relatable instructions. His pauses, emphasis on key steps (like “do not use bad yeast”), and natural enthusiasm make it easy to follow, making it ideal for shadow speak practice. You’ll pick up everyday phrases like “set it aside” and “give this a stir” while getting comfortable with rhythm and intonation.

Breaking Down Natural English: 3 Phrases to Master

“They're going to be hungry.” John uses this playful metaphor for yeast, which sounds casual and native. Notice how “they're” is contracted—native speakers rarely say “they are” in quick speech. Practice saying it with a light, conversational tone to sound more natural.
“This is not the quick and easy recipe.” The phrase “quick and easy” is a common collocation. John stresses “not” to emphasize the recipe’s challenge, which teaches you how to use intonation to convey meaning. Repeat it, focusing on the stress on “not” and the smooth flow of “quick and easy.”
“You wanna see a nice foamy head.” “Wanna” is a relaxed contraction of “want to,” and “foamy head” is a vivid description. Native speakers often use such imagery in instructions. Practice saying “wanna” instead of “want to” to sound more fluent, and mimic the warm, encouraging tone here.

Your 5-Minute Shadow Speak Practice Routine

Ready to learn English with videos and see quick progress? Try this: 1. Watch 30 seconds of the video, focusing on John’s mouth movements and rhythm. 2. Pause, then shadow speak—repeat his words immediately, matching his tone and speed. 3. Record yourself. Compare it to the video: Did you stress the right words? Did you contract “they're” or “wanna” correctly? 4. Do this 3 times with the same clip. By the end, you’ll notice your pronunciation and fluency improving. This routine works because it trains your brain and mouth to mimic natural English, turning “practice” into “progress” fast.

With this video, you’re not just learning to make croissants—you’re building real, usable English skills. Grab your phone, hit play, and start shadowing today—your next conversation will sound smoother, I promise!

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
