Second Proofing

Description

1. Arrange the shaped croissants (place the shaped croissants on a baking sheet, ensuring space between them).
2. Cover with a cloth (loosely cover the croissants with a damp cloth or plastic wrap).
3. Let them rise (leave the croissants to proof in a warm place for 1-2 hours, until they double in size).
4. Check the dough (gently press a croissant with your finger — it should slowly spring back).
5. Avoid over-proofing (do not let them rise too much, as it may affect the texture).

The croissants are now ready to be baked!
