Croissants. Do you eat them cold or warmed up ?

[Dave7]

I have always warmed them in the oven.
I no longer have an oven.
I have an air frier but wasn't happy with the result ie hot on the outside but cold on the inside.
I have just bought some more and thinking of trying them cold.
Any thoughts ?

Cold

Traditionally, they are eaten at room temperature as that allows all the flavours to be present. Best, is just when you or the baker just takes them out of the over.

Ideally, bought from the boulangerie and taken to the nearby bar to eat with your morning coffee.

I tried heating some up in my microwave/grill oven. I left them on grill and got distracted. The smoke alarm went off and the oven smells of burnt croissant.
Cold.

Depends how fresh, if fresh cold (or if lucky, slightly warm the seller).
I don't bother with supermarket ones, not worth the excessive calories!

My local boulangerie is called Aldi.

The only "local" bakery is Waterfields and for some reason they don't sell them.

Warmed (not too hot) in the microwave.

In my camping days, heated carefully in a frying pan.

I can't abide cold croissants. Italian cornetti, yes, but then they're usually filled with something.

 

[BrumJim]

Warm. Air fryer.

 

[yello]

Warmed 'til they're soggy.

Room temp. Too much grease comes out of you heat them up

 

[matticus]

Warm.
Assuming someone else has kindly warmed them up JUST before I'm ready for one. Yummy.

Otherwise I'm on them as fast as possible. Cold is fine.

 

[blackrat]

I don't eat them at all. Too much fat, too many calories, too greasy. It's like eating a mouthful of lard.

Cold
