Cinnamon swirls/ lamond croissants

[Emma75]

OK, so I am pg and trying to follow SW to avoid gaining too much. Problem is, I crave cinnamon swirls and almond croissants.

Does anyone know of any way to make these with low syn values???????? Or am I doomed?

Seriously doubt there's any way of making them low syn - pastry is the killer and particularly with croissants because of the butter. The lowest pastry is filo so I suppose you could experiment with that but it will not be low syn. Better just to use your syns and have one as a treat every now and them.

Someone brought some 1 syn cinnamin swirls to our christmas meeting. She said the recipe was in an old magazine. They were lovely. Maybe try searching on here?

oh my.. if there is such a thing as low syn pastries then i might just keel over!

Oh, 1 syn swirls!!! That sounds promising!

I just had one tonight... I have caught the tummy bug that has been doing rounds around here.... Have only had half a bag of grapes to eat during the day, and just now managed to eat a cinnamon swirl - it was all I fancied and could face, so I went with it..... It was very nice!!

Will definitely search for that recipe though!

Oh, that would be great! Thanks! I had a look online but could not find it...
