Croissants

  1. Toaster -You can toast the croissants sliced in a toaster. Best to check it every few minutes and start on a lower toaster setting. Microwave - For a few seconds (30 to 40 seconds) Oven - Place them in the oven for about 6 minutes on 180 degrees Celsius on a baking tray with or without baking paper. You can also put them straight onto the oven rack (make sure it's clean). For a flaky texture wrap them in foil.
