I take these buttery delights to potluck suppers, and when I serve them to guests I can always count on many requests for the recipe. They're a favorite at home on our hay and cattle operation, too. The rolls aren't hard to make, and they freeze very well for future use. -Mary Jane Mullins, Livonia, Missouri

Time 40m

Yield 24 rolls.

Number Of Ingredients 8

2-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
1-3/4 cups water
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, divided
2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons salt
2 cups whole wheat flour

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour and yeast. , Heat the water, brown sugar, 3 tablespoons butter, honey and salt to 120°-130°; add to flour mixture. Beat on low for 30 seconds with electric mixer; increase speed to high and continue beating 3 minutes. Stir in whole wheat flour and enough remaining all-purpose flour to form a soft dough. , Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours. Punch dough down and divide into thirds. Shape each into a ball; cover and let rest 10 minutes. , On a lightly floured surface, roll the balls into three 12-in. circles. Cut each circle into 8 wedges. Roll wedges into crescent shapes, starting at the wide end. Place on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Melt remaining butter and brush some on each crescent. , Bake at 400° until golden brown, 10-15 minutes. Brush again with butter while hot.

I've tried a lot of different croissant recipes, but this one is by far the best. The croissants are always light, flaky, and delicious.

Overall, I thought these croissants were pretty good. They were a bit more dense than I expected, but they still had a good flavor.

The croissants were a bit too sweet for me. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

These croissants were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add a little more butter or milk next time.
