Chestnut croissant

Chestnuts, chestnuts, chestnuts - no matter what you call them, they warm the heart and fingers when roasted! Many desserts such as chestnut croissants are also baked in southern Burgenland.

Preparation of the croissants

Dissolve the yeast in a little milk. Knead all the ingredients into a dough and leave to rest in the fridge for 2 hours. In the meantime, prepare the filling - simply mix all the ingredients together. Divide the dough into three parts, roll out into strips using a pasta roller and cut into triangles. Place the filling in a piping bag and pipe onto the triangles. Roll up the dough and shape into croissants. Bake at 180 degrees Celsius for approx. 15 minutes.
