- Spread about a teaspoon of chestnut paste on each piece of dough and top with a few chopped hazelnuts. Roll it up and place upright in the oven dish.

- Bake the croissants for about 10-15 minutes in the preheated oven.
Serve with...
- In the meantime you can heat the apricot jelly with a few tablespoons of water to make it thinner. When it's almost boiling it is ready!
