croissant
Flaky French pastry
A croissant is a crescent-shaped pastry made from buttery, flaky dough that puffs into thin layers when baked.
The word is French for "crescent." Croissants are a breakfast staple, eaten plain or filled with chocolate, ham and cheese, or almond paste: She grabbed a croissant and coffee on her way to work.
