Croissants with jam

Cookinero 20 Jan 2026

Croissants with jam, croissants with marmalade, croissants with marmalade, with cheese, cottage cheese or ham! The variety of fillings for this dessert is amazing, despite the fact that the classic croissant recipe does not imply any filling at all and uses yeast puff pastry. But you can even take absolutely any dough.

How to cook Croissants with jam

Step 1

Croissants with jam

Knead the dough. Dissolve the yeast in slightly warm milk and let it sit for 10 minutes, then beat in the egg. Add sugar and salt. Mix. Pour in flour in small portions and knead the dough. Let it sit for 20 minutes.

Step 2

Croissants with jam

Let's start making puff pastry. Roll it out into a thin layer. Spread butter on it. Fold all the edges to the center - you should get a square envelope. Now you need to press the dough down a little from above and roll it out carefully so as not to tear it. And fold it into an envelope again. Repeat this twice. And leave it for about 15 minutes.

Step 3

While the dough is rising, prepare the yolk for brushing the croissants. Separate the yolk from the white, carefully pouring it from one half of the shell to the other until all the white has drained onto a saucer. Place the yolk in a bowl or small bowl and mix thoroughly with a brush. Set aside.

Step 4

Croissants with jam

Roll croissants from the finished dough. To do this, divide the dough into small pieces and carefully roll each of them. Cut the dough into triangles, put a teaspoon of jam in the base of each triangle and roll the buns from the base to the top. Place on a baking sheet and let stand for about 10 minutes so that the croissants rise slightly. Brush the top with yolk.

Croissants with jam - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes! You can use instant yeast instead. Use 25% less than the recipe calls for since its potency is higher.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerated for 4-5 days. Reheat briefly in the oven to restore crispness.
Yes! Use plant-based milk, replace the egg with 1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 3 tbsp water, and substitute butter with vegan margarine or coconut oil.
Absolutely! Shape the croissants, then freeze unbaked on a tray before transferring to a freezer bag. Bake directly from frozen, adding 5-7 extra minutes.
Use thick preserves or refrigerated jam. Avoid runny liquids - you can thicken loose jam with ½ tsp cornstarch before using.
Yes! Divide dough into more pieces and reduce baking time by 5-8 minutes. Mini croissants make great party appetizers.
Ensure your butter stays cold during folding and work quickly. If butter melts into the dough, it won't create proper layers.
Try Nutella, almond paste, chocolate chips, or even savory fillings like cheese and ham. Adjust baking time if using wet ingredients.
It should feel relaxed (not spring back when pressed) and cool to the touch. Chill 45 minutes if your kitchen is warm.
Use milk, cream, or melted butter for browning. For vegan versions, almond milk with ½ tsp maple syrup works well.
