About French croissant
The French croissant is a beloved pastry hailing from French cuisine, widely recognized for its flaky layers and buttery richness. Made using a laminated dough that blends flour, butter, water, sugar, and yeast, the extensive folding process creates its signature light, airy texture. While croissants are a staple in French breakfast culture, their origins trace back to Austria’s kipferl, brought to France and refined in the early 19th century. Croissants are high in carbohydrates and fat due to the generous use of butter, making them an energy-dense treat. They contain small amounts of protein and essential vitamins like B-complex from the yeast and wheat flour. However, they are not a significant source of fiber or micronutrients and can be caloric when consumed frequently. As an occasional indulgence paired with fresh fruit or coffee, croissants can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet.
