Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 190C and line a large baking tray with baking paper.
-
Mix the cinnamon and coconut sugar in a bowl.
-
On a clean bench sprinkle 1 tablespoon of cinnamon sugar and place a sheet of pastry on top.
-
Sprinkle another tablespoon of sugar on top and fold the pastry in half.
-
Use a rolling pin to roll out into a rectangle about 30cm x 20cm.
-
Lightly brush the top of the pastry with egg and sprinkle with another tablespoon of sugar.
-
Fold in half again, and roll out again to the same size. Repeat this process once more.
-
Then repeat with remaining 2 sheets of pastry.
-
Cut donut shapes from the dough, including the centre hole. Each sheet should give 4 cronuts (12 total). Place the cronuts onto the baking tray and place the holes on one side.
-
Bake for 15 minutes, ensuring they are not left in too long as they will become too hard.
-
In a small bowl mix caster sugar, milk and vanilla and drizzle over the warm cronuts.
-
Serve warm or store for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
