15 g granulated sugar
7 g salt
35 ml sunflower oil
225 ml water
40 g butter (for filling)

In a large bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar, salt, sunflower oil, and water. Mix well and knead for 10-12 minutes until the dough is smooth.

Divide the dough into two pieces and roll each into a circle on a floured surface.
Spread softened butter on one circle and place the second circle on top. Cut into 12 triangles.
Roll each triangle from the wide end to the tip to form croissants.
