Hi everyone! We have heavenly treats on the blog today. Since I shared with you a croissant dough recipe already, we are now making these beautiful pastries called Morning Buns from Tartine’s bakery.

These are glorious rolls of croissants filled with a mixture of sugar, cinnamon and orange zest to deliver an amazing flavor with a little citrus bite.

I first came across these from one of my favorite blogs, Butter Baking. Just by looking at the the stunning pictures of this pastry, I can almost feel the delicate, buttery layers on my mouth. So I said to myself, ” I am going to make these, for sure!” Without even knowing that the buns are not regular bread dough. They are actually croissants.

So I knew If I really wanted those pastries, I had to make the croissant dough. The much-feared croissant dough with its long, laborious process.

But actually, once I signed up for the deed, I realized that making croissants is not that hard as it seems. All you really need is time and patience, and you can execute the croissant dough process at home with no problem.

So check out the croissant dough recipe here with step by step photos to show you the process.

Now making these morning buns is pretty much like making cinnamon rolls. You roll out the dough to a 12 x 24 inch rectangle, sprinkle the filling over top, then use your hands to spread the filling all over the surface of the dough.

The cut pieces are then placed on buttered muffin tins and allowed to rise for about 45 minutes before baking.

I tell you, after the long croissant process, these morning buns are such great rewards. You can have them for breakfast, snack or dessert and they will amaze you each time.
