Cronuts..a mix between a croissant and a donut.
We were so curious about the newest culinary rage in New York City. Too bad we are not able to go to NY anytime soon, just to try this sweet treat and go back. So we figure why not doing some research and make it ourself. Today we attempted to make a few of these Cronuts! We know it will not taste and look exactly the same as the original one from pastry chef Dominique Ansel, who invented this croissant-donut. But it was delicious and fun making it.
Here is the recipe for homemade cronuts:
– Prepare the croissant dough (which you can buy in a grocery store)
– Give the dough a quick roll and fold it. Repeat this 3 times ( Roll, fold, roll, fold, roll, fold) haha. Till you get this envelop shape between one or 2 inches thick.
– Cut it into rings and in the middle a smaller ring.
– Then lets fry ’em up in oil. Flip them often till they get this deep golden color.
– Transfer them on a baking sheet with paper towel and let it cool it of.
– Prepare the Custard and use a piping bag or something else to fill the Cronut
– For the topping you can use whatever you like : cinnamon sugar, icing sugar and sprinkle some chocolate etc.
.
Done! Super easy to make. Don’t forget to fry the rest of the dough.
I love it! These are all the rage in NYC. Did you see last week’s chopped? The cronut was a basket ingredient. You always post things that catch the eye. Another amazing share – thank you. Warmly – Shanna
Oh really? no we didn’t heard about it. Everyone wants to try these famous cronuts and making them at home is much easier/cheaper but still delicious. A few weeks ago a friend went to NY city and told us all about it. We love trying out new things and share it with you and other bloggers 🙂 Cheers
Yes, they are VERY trendy right now. People in NYC wait in line for hours – and can’t receive one. Even celebrities must wait like the rest of the folk. They are very en vogue. Thank you for always sharing. You are very modern, chic girls!

Heard about these too. Was just in NYC…should have joined the line, but since I didn’t might give the homemade version a try! Thanks for the recipe!
Hello Julie! Yes we heard about it, standing hours in the line! So its more easy to make it at home hihi. Enjoy making these Cronuts!
I have seen these on television too! Look great. Must be a European thing for the croissant dough though, I still have yet to find it in an American supermarket.
Hi! Yes the croissant dough is actually from France. We saw that you can buy this dough at the Walmart in US. Its called Pilssbury Original Crescent Rolls.
This sounds crazy good! I just heard about these. Thanks for sharing the how to’s!
Hi Victoria, sorry for a late reply! You are welcome. Did you already made some cronuts? Hope you liked it 😀
