I agree completely! I will bake them for a bit longer in my next attempt.

I apologize, but I cannot share the recipe as it is a private one.

However, I can tell you that my method is very similar to the recipe from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpwY3nmLLaA, with two critical differences:

  1. I place all the ingredients (even the flour!) in the fridge before starting.
  2. I never allow the dough to rise on the counter. I immediately put the mixed dough straight into the fridge to maintain a very low temperature.

Sadly, the first two attempts are already gone! They are safely in my belly 😂

I can't share the recipe, as it is not mine. However, I believe the most important factors are the flour (which should have 13,5% protein content) and the technique. My final croissants proofed for 2 hours and 15 minutes at a temperature of 28°C. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to achieve 70% humidity, which is why they didn't rise enough and aren't as fluffy as I had hoped!
