Ingredients

  • Croissants
  • Pistachios, chopped
  • Butter, softened
  • Powdered sugar
  • Vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Slice each croissant in half lengthwise, but do not cut all the way through.
  • In a bowl, mix together chopped pistachios, softened butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
  • Spread the pistachio mixture onto the bottom half of each croissant.
  • Place the top half of the croissants back on top and gently press to seal.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the croissants are golden brown.
  • Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • If you prefer a smoother filling, you can pulse the pistachios in a food processor before mixing them with the butter.
  • For added flavor, try sprinkling a little bit of sea salt on top of the croissants before baking.
  • You can substitute the pistachios with other nuts, such as almonds or hazelnuts, if preferred.
