I have resisted most things in the glass bakery case at Starbucks, because I’m usually so busy thinking about whether or not my coffee is going to be the right color when I receive it. But, I saw the words ‘baked apple croissant’ on the Starbucks menu the other day and envisioned a flaky bite of apple pie. The Starbucks version was okay, but I knew I could do better. Baking from scratch is what I do best, as I’m sure you know. Instead of making the dough from scratch, we’re using puff pastry from the freezer section, of course!

How to Store Apple Croissants

These leftover pasties keep well at room temperature in an air-tight container for up to 1 day on the counter. To further extend their shelf life, refrigerate them for up to 3 days. Try to re-heat them in the oven rather than the microwave so that the pastry crisps up instead of becoming soggy in the microwave. If you’re looking for a recipe to use up the remaining sheet of puff pastry (since they usually come two per box), try my Apple Turnovers.
