Croissants are a type of pastry that originated in France.
They are known for their flaky, buttery texture and crescent shape.
Making croissants is a labor-intensive process that involves multiple
steps of rolling,
folding, and chilling the dough to create the flaky layers.
The dough is then shaped into crescents, proofed, and baked until golden
brown.
While the classic croissant is plain, there are many variations
available, including chocolate-filled, almond-filled, or savory options
with cheese or ham.
Despite their indulgent nature, they can provide some benefits when
enjoyed in moderation.
They can be a

It's best to enjoy them occasionally as a treat rather than as a
staple in your diet.
