Individual Kruffins with Jam

Individual muffins with jam

Kruffins are a relatively recent invention of the young American pastry chef, Ri Steven. They are a symbiosis of layered croissant pastry baked in a muffin tin. The Kruffin itself is unique due to its shape and delicious taste. But it can be made even more special by filling it with your favorite jam or cream.

Actually, there's nothing complicated about making croffins. We will prepare a regular yeast dough. If you're kneading the dough by hand, you can use the technique described in this recipe. I prefer to knead yeast dough using a bread maker. It's very convenient and saves both energy and time. Place the necessary ingredients for the dough in the bread maker bowl in the recommended order, as stated in the instruction. In my case, it's first all the liquid ingredients, followed by the dry ones.
