Easy Vegan Almond Croissants

1. Mix together the almond paste ingredients (almond meal, semi-soft vegan butter, blue agave syrup, almond extract, pinch salt, unsweetened almond milk) and put into the fridge so that the vegan butter doesn’t completely melt.
2. Make the almond syrup by combining the ingredients (water, raw cane sugar, almond extract) over medium-high heat and bring to a quick boil, then remove from heat so it doesn’t crystallize.
3. Slice croissants in half and brush the almond syrup on the insides of each. Then, take out the almond paste from the fridge and spread it generously on each slice.
4. Put the croissants back together and brush the almond syrup on top.
5. Dip the top of each in a bowl of sliced almonds and then place onto parchment paper (unbleached recommended).
6. Bake for about 15 minutes or until the sliced almonds are toasted.
