Every time I go to Costco, I need to buy the croissants from the bakery. They are so cheap, and pretty good. It saves me from going to Starbucks on the way to work and buying some of their overpriced croissants. 

But have you tried putting these croissants in the air fryer? I am convinced that this is the perfect way to enjoy the Costco croissants. It tastes exactly like the croissants from Starbucks when they heat them up. It makes them so much more flaky, and it somehow brings out the buttery croissant taste even more.

If you are looking for another use for your air fryer, this is it. I make this daily, and I promise you that you will never eat a Costco croissant any other way.

What you need to make Air Fryer Costco Croissants

For the ingredients, you just need the one thing:

  • Costco's croissant (from the bakery section, not frozen croissants)

That's it! Yup, it really is that easy.

You will also need an air fryer. This is the air fryer I have which I love, but if you wanted a cheaper one this one is a great option

Tips

If you don't want to clean your air fryer basket: ​Use air fryer liners! I never knew that this was a thing until recently, but it saves me cleaning my air fryer, especially when I am just making these croissants!

Make sure you are using cooked croissants. ​This recipe is not for the frozen or refrigerated croissants. This recipe is for the room temperature croissants that you find in Costco's bakery section.

Experiment with other cooked croissants. If you have some cold almond croissants or pain au chocolat, I am sure that those would be amazing following the same directions as this!
