Preparation

Step 1

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay out your croissants. Let sit overnight.

Wake up, make a cup of coffee. Stretch and yawn. Look at how light and puffy your croissants are. Be super gentle when you handle them. But using your cutter, pop holes in the center of all of them.

Heat your oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Test one of your cronut holes to make sure your temperature is good. Fry your cronuts. You don’t need long, 1-2 minutes, flip it, 1-2 minutes more. Should be a nice golden brown.

When they are done, lay them out on paper towels to drain out excess oil.

Whisk together your buttermilk, vanilla and powdered sugar till smooth. Drizzle over cooled cronuts.
