  Almond croissant meets milk bread in this irresistible enriched loaf. Streaked with frangipane and encrusted with sugared nuts, this loaf trades the shattering flakiness of a croissant for the fluffy, tender, feathery qualities of milk bread. The dough is rolled out, spread with frangipane and toasted almonds, then rolled into logs and braided, producing a beautiful shape and infusing the bread with almond-croissant flavor. To take the mash-up even further, make almond croissant milk bread French toast (!!!) with the leftovers.

=====Pain de Campagne (Country Bread)=====
[https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/pain-de-campagne-country-bread-recipe by Maura Brickman KING ARTHUR]
This recipe comes to us from Maura Brickman, a serious home baker in Connecticut who doesn't let her bread's schedule rule her life (even though she bakes daily). Using unfed sourdough starter, minimal kneading, long fermentation, and baking in a hot Dutch oven are some of the techniques Maura employs to create bakery-quality loaf after bakery-quality loaf. Once you read through and bake this recipe yourself, you'll no doubt discover exactly how to adapt it to your own schedule — which means you may very well find yourself baking this country bread weekly (or even daily!).
