WHILE nothing can beat a fresh croissant, frozen pastries can offer some great advantages - mainly that they're super easy and practical to prepare.
The golden treats are usually 'ready to bake' and simply require you to place them in the oven for the recommended time on the instructions.
But, what if we were to tell you that there's a quick and easy way to make frozen croissants taste like they're fresh from the bakery, so you can get the best of both worlds?
Well, you're in luck!
Lidl posted a video on Instagram and penned: "New in store! Turns out making delicious croissants at home is really easy."

The popular food store offered instructions on how to bake their new frozen croissants, which retail at £2.55 for a pack of eight.
The short clip then shows a woman removing the croissants from the freezer, before placing them onto a baking tray, and leaving in the oven for 20 minutes.
But, while the mouthwatering croissants come out looking golden, some Lidl shoppers shared the very clever food trick they swear by.
And it's good news if you own an Air fryer...

"Bang them in the Ninja Foodie [Air fryer] for 10 - et voilà perfect croissants," suggested one.
The Air fryer fan went on to say how the ideal temperature is 180C.
Seeming to agree with the trick, Lidl even replied: "Never has a finer sentence been said."
Another advised: "If you defrost first they puff up more and are bigger."
