Air Fryer Almond Croissants

·

These Air Fryer Almond Croissants are crisp on the edges, and filled with a floral, gooey almond custard on the inside that make you feel as if you're in France!

Ingredients you'll need:

  • Equipment: Cosori Air Fryer (Use code LAUREN20)
  • 6 Croissants, sliced in half lengthwise
  • ½ cup Shaved Almonds, for garnishing
  • 1 cup Fine Almond Flour
  • ½ cup Granulated Cane Sugar
  • 1 stick Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 2 large Eggs
  • (Optional) ¼ cup Rum
  • Pinch of Salt

TIP: You do not have to make all 6 croissants at once, but can store the extra almond filling for later.

How to Make Air Fryer Almond Croissants:

  1. In a food processor, combine the almond flour, sugar, softened butter, eggs, rum, and a pinch of salt. Pulse until smooth.
  2. Add 2-3 tablespoons of the almond filling on the bottom half of each croissant. Sandwich with the top half, then spread a little more on top to help the shaved almonds to stick.
  3. Place a sheet of parchment paper on the rack of your air fryer. Place 3 almond croissants on the parchment.
  4. Bake on 275F for 14-18 minutes, until golden on top and crisp. If in a hurry, bake at 335F for 8-10 minutes, keeping an eye on the croissants to ensure they don’t burn.
  5. Let the almond croissants rest at least 10 minutes before dusting with powdered sugar to enjoy!

Can you Make these Almond Croissants in the Oven?

Yes, you can bake them at 350F for 12-15 minutes, until golden on top.


How to Store Leftover Almond Croissants:

I will usually only make a few croissants at a time, then store the leftover almond filling paste in a glass jar for up to 2 weeks in the fridge. Store any baked almond croissants in a container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
