Ingredients

1 pkg
Odense Marzipan
200 g
¼ cup
unsalted butter, room temperature
60 mL
4
Bake Shop 100% Butter Croissants
275 g
1 tbsp
icing sugar
15 mL
1½ tsp
water
7 mL
½ tsp
almond extract
2 mL
¼ cup
Compliments Sliced Almonds
60 mL

Directions

Step 1

Position rack in centre of oven, then preheat to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment.

Step 2

Using a spoon, mash marzipan with butter in a medium bowl until well combined and is a spreadable consistency.

Step 3

Cut croissants in half horizontally, leaving a hinge on one side. Divide and spread marzipan mixture over bottom halves of each croissant. Sandwich with top half. Arrange croissants on prepared sheet.

Step 4

Stir icing sugar with water and almond extract in a small bowl. Brush a thin layer of almond syrup over tops of croissants. Sprinkle with sliced almonds.

Step 5

Bake until croissants are just crisp, about 10 mins. Sift more icing sugar overtop, if desired. Serve warm.

Tip

If you prefer a less sweet pastry, divide marzipan mixture and almond syrup between 6 croissants.
