These croissants can be baked immediately or stashed in the fridge overnight for brunch tomorrow. The finished croissants will be softer if they are cooked snugly in a baking dish with high sides, whereas if they are spaced out on a baking sheet, they’ll have a crispy edge. Choose as you’d like.
TIP: Small pickles are crunchier than large ones and, thus, are my preference here. Plus, they don’t slide around as much. That said, large half-sours are pretty delicious.
