The Plain Croissant is a classic pastry originating from French cuisine, celebrated for its flaky texture and buttery richness. Made with a simple dough of flour, water, sugar, milk, butter, and yeast, the croissant achieves its signature layers through a meticulous laminating process of folding and rolling butter into the dough. While light and airy, the croissant is high in calories due to its butter content, making it an indulgent treat rather than a health-focused food. It provides some carbohydrates for energy and contains small amounts of protein from the flour. However, its saturated fat content can be a concern if consumed in excess. As a versatile base, the Plain Croissant is enjoyed on its own or paired with savory or sweet spreads, making it a staple in bakeries worldwide and a symbol of traditional French patisserie.
