Almond Croissants Recipe (French Bakery Style)
This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy.
If you visit a classic French Bakery, you’ll likely see these behind a shiny glass: “Croissants aux Amandes” (aka Almond Croissants).
My cousin’s wife, Katya, shared this recipe with me on our recent trip to the Seattle area. She served them with breakfast alongside a hot latte. These almond croissants were delicious and easy to make. The recipe can be cut in half for a smaller crowd. What a wonderful treat!
Ingredients for Almond Croissants:
8 (one-day-old) medium/large croissants, left at room temp uncovered overnight
3 Tbsp sliced almonds
Powdered (Confectioner’s) sugar for dusting
Ingredients for the syrup:
2 Tbsp sugar
4 Tbsp rum (optional, but highly recommended. You can use 1 tsp Vanilla extract instead)
1 Cup water
Ingredients for the Almond Cream (crème d’amandes):
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup almond meal/almond flour (or 2/3 cup whole blanched almonds, but you’ll need a good food processor
to process almonds into an almond meal)
1/8 tsp of salt
1 stick (8 Tbsp) unsalted butter, room temp, sliced
2 large eggs
Watch How To Make Almond Croissants:
How to Make the Syrup:
1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 2 Tbsp sugar and 4 Tbsp rum. Bring to a simmer for a minute and stir until the sugar dissolves then remove from heat and let cool to room temp.
How to Make the Almonds Filling:
If using whole almonds: combine 1/2 cup sugar, 2/3 cup almonds and 1/8 tsp salt in the bowl of a food processor, and pulse until finely ground. Add the butter, and mix again until well blended. Add in the eggs one by one, and process on high speed until creamy and fluffy.
If using almond meal or almond flour: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine 1/2 cup sugar, 1 cup almond meal and 1/8 tsp salt. Mix until well incorporated, then blend in the butter. Finally add the eggs 1 at a time and mix on med/high speed until the whole mixture is creamy and fluffy.
If it looks like this,
beat it some more until it looks like this:
Assembling your French Almond Croissants:
Preheat the oven to 350° F . Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
1. After your croissants have been on the counter drying out overnight, and you’re ready to use them, slice each croissant horizontally like you would for a sandwich.
2. Work with each croissant one by one: dip it into the syrup, coating both sides and the ends well. The croissant should be quite moist, but not soaking wet. Just dip it once on each side.
3. Arrange the croissants on a baking dish, cut side up. Spread about 2 Tbsp of almond filling on the bottom half of each croissant.
4. Place the top halves on and spread about 1 Tbsp of almond filling over the top. Sprinkle with sliced almonds.
5. Bake on the center rack for 15 to 18 minutes or until the cream is golden. Transfer to a wire rack and cool to room temperature or just warm. Dust with powdered sugar before serving. These are best served the same day they are made.

Easy Peach Tartlets Recipe 
Hi! I'm Natasha Kravchuk. Here you'll find delicious, trusted recipes with easy step-by-step photos and videos. 
You know this isn’t a real recipe right? It’s like saying “pepperoni pizza recipe” and they saying, first go to a restaurant and buy a pizza. Then come home and put pepperoni on it. You can’t start a recipe for croissants with day old croissants. Sorry. This is buying something from the store and putting stuff on it. Homemade biscuits with cranberries: go get a biscuit from the store, cut it open, and put cranberries inside. Not a thing. Not a recipe.
Hi Bill, as you will see in the copy above, this is exactly what bakeries do. They take day-old croissants and repurpose them. They don’t bake fresh croissants to make almond croissants. I’m sharing how easy it is to recreate this recipe at home. You are definitely welcome to make your own croissants if you prefer.
Whats a good brand of powered sugar you use? it seems all the ones I use just taste so bad
Hi Jess, we use C&H powdered sugar but you can also make your own powdered sugar. There are several tutorials online like this one.
Hello! What do I do with the left lover filling? It’s too much for 8 croissants.
Thank you.
HI Alina, we use it primarily for these croissants. If using smaller croissants, you can definitely fill more. Mine were the big ones from Costco. I have seen people make stuffed french toast with it. yum!
When we were in Paris, we had croissants exactly like these. When we returned to the US, we weren’t able to find a bakery that made “Parisian” style croissants. Thanks for posting this. These are the absolute best croissants!
Wow! I’m so happy you discovered this recipe! Thank you so much for sharing this with me Jessica!
My niece made these and they were so good, I have the ingredients and going to make them, seeing I go to church early on Sunday I wanted to prepare them ahead of time and just bake them in the morning to take to church ..she assembled everything ahead of time , even days before and put them in the freezer and takes one or two as she wants them and bakes to eat them fresh …so anyone wanting to make a full batch can take out only what they want for that day…have you ever done that?
I have not Dottie, that is so great that worked out for you! I’m happy you enjoyed that and than you for sharing this with me! I’ll have to give that a try
Can i use brandy instead of Rum? Has anyone here tried this….Im hoping it wont ruin the taste. And if i had no choice but to buy fresh crossiants and need to make them before they r about day old does the pre baking them in the oven method work well r are there other options?? Thanks Natasha!
Hi Inna, I haven’t tried brandy but I think it might work well. The recipe works best with day old croissants which aren’t as soft but it will still work with fresher ones. I suggest arranging them on a wire rack and letting them sit uncovered at room temperature as long as you can to dry them out a little before using.
Bought the croissant today as I have a hard time going to stores , can I freeze them and when they thaw do I have to wait a additional day to set them out so they can go stale ?
Hi Dottie, they should be perfectly fine to use once defrosted.
Natasha I been following this recipe for the past 3 years. I make them during the holidays as gifts to my friends, they all look forward to having them on Christmas morning at their doorstep, since I deliver them at midnight. Thank you for sharing your recipe!
That’s so sweet! Sounds like you have awesome Christmas Tradition to look forward to! Thank you for sharing that with us!
Wow, what a great idea! Love it 😍 I should do that !
They are really good. I made this, but used smaller croissants. Everybody loved them.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for the awesome feedback!
These are amazing! I bought fresh croissants and put them in the oven at 170 for 13 minutes this made them not as soft then I followed the rest of the recipe and it turned it great!
I’m so happy you enjoyed this recipe, Violeta!!
When I saw the title for Almond Croissants, I was expecting to see a complete recipe for making the croissants. I was disappointed to see that I had to buy the croissants. I have tried making croissants but not successfully. I was hoping that your recipe would help me with this. I was disappointed. I can buy croissants any time, but always prefer to make things myself.
Hi Jeanette, I will have to post a recipe for making homemade croissants one of these days, but the purpose of this recipe is to re-create the bakery treat called almond croissants and show people how easy they are to make at home without paying the high price tag at bakeries. Bakeries use day old croissants to make them as well.
When I was looking for recipes to make these I came across an article..almond croissants were originated because french bakers needed to dress up old pasteries..and this the well beloved almond croissant
Thank you so much for sharing that with me!
Made these for my family this weekend. They disappeared immediately! Hubby said he now didn’t want to have the ones from French Bakery anymore (and he is picky! :-)).
Followed recipe exactly, except I forgot to buy powdered sugar. I also used a pastry brush to put the rum/sugar mixture on. Finally, I think I added too much almond cream (it melted out onto the parchment in some cases!) but none of these affected the goodness. Highly recommend! Thanks so much for the fantastic recipe!
That’s so great Anita! I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the wonderful review! It’s so great when we can find a family favorite!
When you dip the croissant in the syrup is it only the cut edge or all sides of the roll? They seemed to get really soggy when I dipped all sides. Otherwise they are delicious.
Hi Michelle, I do dip all sides of the croissant but just a single dip in and out or it can get soggy. You can control the moisture level by how quickly you remove them. I’m so glad you loved the flavor!
My friend made these according to your recipe and they were super delish! I usually like to keep some emergency treats in the freezer. Would these be OK to freeze?
Hi Tatyana, I’ve never tried freezing them so can’t make a recommendation. If anyone tried freezing these, please share your results.
Saw these and they look wonderful. I was thinking they would also be wonderful with just almond paste for a filling.. just sayin
Great suggestion Dorothy!
Wow, these are incredible!!!! Thank you!!! I’m always searching for great almond croissants in bakeries, but this one is the best!
It sounds like you have a new favorite! I’m so inspired reading your review. Thank you!
I made these and they are so delicious! My parents loved them a lot since they’re not into very sweet desserts! The only thing I wish I did was add rum but couldn’t find it at any stores near me. Where did you buy rum from?
Hi Belle, rum is usually sold in liquor stores. There are some states where it is sold in grocery stores, but in Idaho I can only get it at the liquor store.
Just made these after wanting to for months– what a delicious and easy recipe! My almond filling was a little runny, so I added a bit of additional flour, and they turned out golden and beautiful 🙂 Thanks for yet another new favourite, Natasha!
You’re welcome Elliott! I’m glad you enjoy the recipe! Thanks for sharing your review! 🙂
If I’m have hazelnut meal, can i use this for the almond flourmeal instead?
Hi Inna, I haven’t tried that but if it is the same consistency as almond, I think that should work fine 🙂
hazelnut meal works great! Its kinda like a flour very fine grinded hazelnut. so good!
Awesome!! Thanks Inna 🙂
Thought I’d use Amaretto instead of rum in keeping with the almond flavor.
That’s a great idea Lourdes! Please let me know how it turns out!
Cannot wait to try these! They look so delicious! Does it matter what type of rum you use? I have dark rum on hand.
Hi Christa, it is just a matter of taste preference. I think dark rum would work well.
I want to try these. I eat at least two a day from Starbucks. I was wondering though, I don’t see almond extract in this recipe, does it not really go in? I’ve never made anything with almond meal so maybe the almondy alone flavor comes from it? Have you or has anyone added almond extract? I hope I don’t sound like I’m second guessing this recipe, I just want to be 100% sure!
You are correct! Because the base of this recipe is almond meal, I do not add almond extract, however if you wanted to add a splash, it would not hurt. I hope you love the recipe and never have to buy them again! 😉
Ok, awesome! Yes i hope not either. They’re like $3.50 for one regular size one at Starbucks here! Can definitely add up! Trying now, thank you for the quick response!
My pleasure Tawny! Please let me know how they turn out!
If I make them the night before, is it best to refrigerate or leave them out?
Thank you!
Hi Donna! I love them best the day they are made but you could cover and store them at room temperature overnight. I suggest waiting to dust with powdered sugar until just before serving. Enjoy!! 🙂
These are amazing, my whole family loved them. They dont last long around here
Thank you for this awesome recipe
You’re welcome Diane! I’m happy to hear everyone enjoys the recipe! Thanks for sharing 😀
I use Rum extract, 1 teaspoon in the syrup and t teaspoon and 1/2 tsp. vanilla in the cream. I also used ground Hazelnuts for the cream and shaved almonds, turned out yummy
Mmmm! That does sound good! I’m happy to hear you enjoy the recipe Ursula 🙂
Made these before and they are amazing. Wanting to make these again today but my Croissants are about 3 days old but have been covered. Will they still work?
Hi Valentina, as long as they aren’t moldy, they should work just fine 🙂
I am in love with these croissants. Thank you for such a yummy recipe. I made them twice in 4 days period. I honestly have no self control when I see them. Haha gotta watch myself:)
Tanya, thank you for such a rave review, I’m so glad to hear that 😀.
Can you use hazelnuts on top instead ? I have almond flour for recipe part but for nuts I only have walnuts , and hazelnuts. Or should I make a quick trip to the store since these are almond crossiants 😂 thank you
Hi Anna, that should work, but I recommend that you chop them up since whole nuts will be too large and probably won’t stay on 🙂
I did almond 🙂 it was super yummy, but for anyone wondering… if you wake up at 430 am and take out the crossaints to dry it doesn’t count as over night 😂, so if it’s not full overnight , due to lack of time just a longer cook time , and they crisp up nice just a little more chewy 🙂
They came out Perfect ! Thanks for the recipes. These are now my favorite things for breakfast now.
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us and you are welcome!
They tasted amazing. Thakyou for the wonderful recipe 😀
Tanya, thank you for the nice review. I have some croissants so you just gave me an idea what to make tomorrow 😋.
I have a roll of almond paste. Could I use that instead of almond flour/blanched almonds??
Thanks
Hi Lori, to be honest, I haven’t tried that so I’m not sure how it would affect the texture.
Do the croissants have to be 1 day old? And it seems strange using the rum, does it really make them a lot nicer and can you taste the rum? What rum would you suggest if using it
The rum does add great flavor and it’s not overpowering at all.I use Bacardi gold rum (in the photo toward the top).
Got all the ingredients ,except the rum. Couldn’t find the brand and couldn’t justify the price of experimenting with a different brand. Bought some rum essence, do you know or does anyone know whether this would work just as well? Has a yone tried using it with this recipe? Or should I just stick with the vanilla extract? Want to make them for breakfast for my husband and I x.
I haven’t tried that, just make sure to taste the syrup before using it to make sure it’s not overpowering. Let me know how it goes! 🙂
Those are soooo good. So glad I came across this recipe. Making it for third time. Thank you Natasha
You are welcome Tanya, I’m so glad you liked it 😁.
Tried these at my sisters house, and fell in love with them!! Can’t wait to make them myself!
I would love to know how they turn out once you make them 😁
What a great recipe! I’ve ised it with great success several times. My family and I enjoy it immensely! Thank you!
You are welcome Katy, I’m so glad you like them 😁.
Hi natasha, do you think i could assemble these a hour or 2 ahead of time and just pop them in the oven later? i make mine without the syrup if that helps
Yes I think that would work fine :).
The article says paddle attachment. But the pictures have a whisk attachment
Oh my goodness you’re right! I think what happened was I used the paddle attachment when I was drafting the recipe but I realized that it blended easier with the whisk attachment. Thank you so much for pointing that out! 🙂
So if I were to bake these the night before I needed them, should I leave them at room temp? Covered/uncovered? Or in the fridge?
These are best fresh, but I’ve refrigerated a leftover one before and it was ok, but not as good as fresh. If you leave the butter at room temp overnight, making the filling is a pretty quick process. You can absolutely make the syrup in advance and leave it at room temp and you can pre-slice the croissants.
these look amazing! am i able to make the syrup and filling the night before and assemble them in the morning?
Its best to make the filling the same day since it’s not great to refrigerate it (butter will become stiff and make it hard to spread) and you wouldn’t leave it at room temp overnight because of the raw eggs. If you leave the butter at room temp overnight, making the filling is a pretty quick process. You can absolutely make the syrup in advance and leave it at room temp.
I’ve actually made both the night before and it turned out perfectly fine. The filling was fine to spread (the butter didn’t harden the spread at all) and the syrup was ok in the fridge (of course you can leave it at room temp anyways).
This recipe is amazing by the way, had so many compliments and I’m going to make it again for tomorrow for work! Yay!
These look divine, I will definitely try! This might be a silly question, do you dip both the top and bottom in the syrup? 🙂
Yes, dip the top and bottom 🙂 Enjoy!
Well I needed an almond filling for a pear tart. I used your recipe but use 50:50 brown sugar: white sugar, added some honey and vanilla extract.
BUT I totally forgot all the butter ( was softening in microwave).
It still worked out perfect for taste and texture!
I bet it tasted amazing! A pear tart with almond filling… Mmmmm 🙂
I just wanted to say that I tried this recipe after buying these croissants at a bakery overseas and this recipe absolutely brought that same flavor back to my family! They were perfection! You can eat them for breakfast or dessert. The only thing I should say is, don’t let the butter get too warm before you put it in the mixer or else it will become kind of liquidy. But I am 17, and if I can bake this, then you can too! I will definitely be checking out the rest of your website for more amazing opportunities!
Thanks Natasha!
Oh I’m so happy you liked the croissants! 🙂 You’re cooking gourmet treats before I was! 🙂 Way to go!
LOve it!
This looks amazing Natasha! I’m planning on attempting this tomorrow morning. Quick question though – if I needed a substitute for the eggs – do you think yoghurt or arrowroot powder would work? They’re my usual subs for cakes and muffins.
Thanks again! 🙂
Without testing those substitutions it is difficult to say if they would work or not, if you are comfortable using them and can’t eat eggs, it’s definitely worth a try! I hope you love these!
Hi Natasha,
Just to update you – absolutely loved these! Used vanilla extract instead of rum & my egg subs (1/4 cup of greek yoghurt + 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder) instead of the eggs but they turned out amazing! Thank you so much!
Hi Maya 🙂 Thank you so much for sharing that! I bet others may have the same question. I sure appreciate it! 🙂
Natasha,
I made these and OMFG they were freaking amazing. My friends loved them!
And I almost never bake, so I was worried I might screw them up. Not even! Best croissants ever and I love that they only take 30 minutes to make.
Great job Lina, thanks for sharing your review 😀 .
Hi Natasha, I made these today, they were delicious.
Taste lime I bought them bakery.
Thank you-
That’s so wonderful to hear! Now every time I go into a bakery and see them, I want one, but I stop and think, nah, I can make that at home ;)!
Yummmy….. Amazing..I just prepared it and loved it!!!!!!
Amazing!! Thanks for this delicious recipe…..
You’re so welcome Shijina 🙂 Cool name by the way!! I’m so glad you loved the recipe.
I had this in mind all week, looked for a recipe, your’s pop out, did them… Love themmmmmmm, easy recipe, wonderfull results. This will be my go to dessert at least for the whole month… Sorry body for the gainning pounds
Welcome to the site Laura, thank you for the great review :). I hope you’ll find more new favorites on the site.
I tried these at my friends house and they were so good that I have to make them myself now! And I love how the recipe is so easy yet so tasty
That’s fantastic! I’m so happy you and your friends loved it 🙂
After spending a month in France, I have been craving these. I found your recipe and tried it last night. They turned out great! I used croissants from Costco that aren’t too bad actually…not like France, but worked great for this recipe. This is the first time I have ever commented on a page before.
Your recipe was easy to follow, and your pictures of the process were fabulous.
Also, and I know I’m being nit-picky here, but your recipe was complete and had no glaring errors in grammar and spelling like so many I have looked at.
Very easy on the eye so to speak
Thanks again
Shelley
Shelley, thank you so much for your sweet words. 🙂 Every now and then I’ll thrown in a typo, but I definitely proof read 🙂 Anyway, you’re awesome and I’m glad you enjoyed the recipe!
I gave this recipe to Katya 😀 I use melted butter and blend the ingredients together, much easier to spread 🙂
AAAAAAh This is so cool!! Nice to meet you my dear 🙂 Let me just say, I love you. These are amazing!
I know, such a small world 🙂 Love your blog! And thank you, but I simply found the recipe and have to give credit to Chocolate & Zucchini blog 🙂 Aren’t they better than from the bakeries?
They are totally amazing and there’s nothing like a warm one out of the oven! 🙂
Hey Natasha,
where do you buy your croissants? I know Safeway has them for a pretty good deal but they’re a bit smaller in size…
You can use smaller ones; you just need more of them and fill them with less. I bought them at Costco. 🙂
Do you think some Kahlua liquor would taste good in this recipe?
I haven’t experimented but I imagine it would taste just as good!
I made these this morning and they turned out fabulous!! The Kahlua liquor added a subtle coffee flavor that added to the overall perfection-thank you! 🙂
I knew you were on to something! 😉
So easy but so spectacular
These were amazing! I added Amaretto liqueur instead of rum.
Natasha~
I LOVE your blog!!! All of your recipes are so awesome, and easy to follow! Thank you for making the tutorials pictured and step-by-step!!! God bless what you’re doing and keep it up!
I can’t wait to try this recipe!
p.s.
I know katya, she’s a good friend 😉
That’s awesome! Such a small world. I’m so glad you enjoy the recipes. God bless you too!!
Just made those croissants this morning. The hardest part was having to wait overnight for the croissants to harden a bit. And then when they were cooling after they baked. They taste just like what I used to buy at Tully’s Coffee, Seattle area. Except the Tully’s ones were like $2 a piece i think, and had less filling. Any more French bakery ideas will be welcome:-)
The hazelnut croissants tasted really great with coffee! And they weren’t overly sweet either, just right.
One question though, is it possible to make the syrup and the filling night ahead, and in the morning just to spread and bake? I want to take to work, but don’t have much time in the morning. Thanks
Yes! You can totally make the filling and syrup the night before. Refrigerate the filling, but you can even leave the syrup at room temp overnight.
Have been waiting for this recipe for such a long time! Finally made these delisiously amazing pastries! Thank you soo much for sharing it with us!
You are welcome Lina, I’m glad you like the recipe :).
It’s funny how you asked what we like to serve our guests for breakfast because this question has been on my mind for a week now as we will have family coming over this weekend. I am glad you posted this awesome-looking recipe, giving me an idea for my coming up breakfast for my guests.
I’ve served bagels with cream cheese for guests before but I also envision doing like a hot waffle bar with lots of toppings.
Thank you for the recipe!
You are welcome Anna :).
mmm…they look like a yummy breakfast!
Oh they are quite a treat 🙂
Gorgeous croissants! And thanks for the amazing tutorial!
You are welcome :), I could have some for breakfast about right now.
P.S. your blog is awesome!! I’ll be checking it out 🙂
this would go great with the mini croissants we can purchase and serve with tea or coffee, with a brunch or after dinner, special occasions too..
If you use the mini croissant how many would you use to use the same amount of cream in the recipe , as with the mini I could bring them to a church function and serve more people
Love this “dressed up” version of regular croissants. And so easy to make (especially because you don’t really have to make the croissants themselves). And almond filling has always been one of my most favorite flavors!
I like the idea of saving the time with already baked croissants, saves time :).
If you make these night/day before, and want to serve them warm/hot, how would you recommend reheating?
Don’t sprinkle them with powdered sugar until ready to serve. I would reheat them by placing them in the oven for 10 minutes at 200°F.
Thank you!
These look SOOO delicious and I haven’t even tried them yet! Definitely wat to make this ASAP!
They would be great for your next Sunday morning breakfast :).
I never realized that this is how bakeries could reuse their stale croissants… clever;)
If you like Nutella, try putting Nutella & bananas inside before popping it in the oven 😀 you might possibly die! )))
Thanks for the warning Marina, I do like Nutella :).
Oh la laaaa! I love it! You ‘hacked’ fancy french bakery goods, nice!
I just love how they melt in my mouth, definitely a keeper :).
One of my favorites breakfast when I like to spoil myself…Oh my,don’t mind having one right now,lol.I like to serve eggs benedict,french toast,and/or stuffed savory or sweet crepes.btw,I love serving guests ,then I have a good excuse to make all those calorific yummies!
This is not our typical breakfast either, but we like to spoil ourselves sometimes too :).
can you use fresh croissants? or do they have to be 8 days old?
Not 8 days old, but one day old. Yes they can be French croissants 🙂
omg…lol…. i totally misread the recipe!! My husband thought i was crazy even asking this question and neither one of us noticed that the recipe called for 8 one day old croissants. i wanted to buy some today and make them. they look amazing. thanks for the recipe! 🙂
This looks yummy! My favorite thing to serve guests for breakfast has to be homemade panini sandwiches. Quick, yummy and very easy to modify for picky guests such as myself 🙂
Oooh yum! What do you put in yours? Are they breakfast style with eggs, bacon,… ?
