panasonic breadmaker croissant help please!

mumnotplusone

Hi all, advice appreciated please -
Would like to make croissants for tomorrow morning and need some advice. Breadmaker book instructions require dough, roll out, dot 2 thirds with butter, fold, roll again, dot again, roll again, dot again. Cover. Rest 30 mins in fridge.

Repeat 3 rollings and dottings again. Shape into croissants.

Leave to prove until doubled. Brush with egg. Bake.

Do you think I could do this method until shaped, then put in fridge until the morning then take out? Would it still double? Or would I be better to leave them out overnight in back kitchen? Covered!
Would love to know your thoughts.

Many thanks in advance.

I've always looked at the croissant recipe and wondered about trying it. Has anyone else tried it - is it any good?

yes you can. you can also freeze them at that stage and defrost on a baking sheet covered in cling film and brushed in oil.
