可颂面包，法国人的一种传统早点。croissant，法语里是“羊角”的意思，所以有时候我们也称它为“羊角面包”。一杯牛奶或者咖啡搭配可颂，是法国人常见的早餐。它已有300多年的历史，现在的奶油面包可是从可颂面包发展过来的哦。它也是法国的传统和文化象征。吃起来咸香，酥脆可口。

原料：
高筋面粉 185g
低筋面粉 63g
酵母 4g
白糖 25g
盐 5g
牛奶 140g
油 25g
裹入黄油 140g
做法：
除黄油外其他材料混合，揉成光滑面团。不需要柔到扩展阶段。
将黄油放进发酵30分钟后的面团里，黄油重量大约是面粉的一半。
黄油擀成大片，放入面团的中间，四角折叠起来，不要让黄油露出来。
叠好，再次擀成薄片，大约是7mm的厚度，折叠三折，撒面粉。
上面步骤至少反复3次，面团和奶油形成层层的薄薄的夹层状。
擀成长方形薄片，放入冰箱冷藏30分钟。
冷藏后进行整形。切去边缘部分，形成规则的长方形。
再切成底边为18，高为9厘米的等腰三角形。从底部开始向上卷，逐个卷好。放入铺好锡纸的烤盘，二次发酵1个小时。
发酵完成，刷一些蛋液，烤箱预热200度，烤15-20分钟，表面金黄即可。做好的可颂内部酥脆可口，有浓郁的麦香味。
