Ingredients

Chicken filling

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup celery, chopped
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 4 green onions, finely sliced
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1/2 cup green onions, finely sliced

  • 24 mini croissants or other small brioche buns

Finishing touch

  • Melted butter

Method

  1. In a large bowl, mix the first 6 ingredients of the chicken filling. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  3. Pour maple sugar into a small plate.
  4. Brush the tops of the mini croissants with melted butter. Press the buttered side into the maple sugar to coat. Place a few croissants at a time, sugar-side down, into the hot skillet. Let caramelize for a few seconds, keeping a close eye to avoid burning. Repeat with remaining croissants. Let cool for about 5 minutes

More about Maple

Maple syrup comes in four classifications, according to colour and taste.

At the start of sugaring season, syrup is generally clear, with a lightly sweet taste. It becomes darker and caramelized as the season goes on.

An unopened can of maple syrup keeps for many years.

Once the can is opened, syrup should be kept in an airtight container in a cool place.

100% pure maple butter contains no butter or dairy.

Like all 100% pure maple products, maple butter comes from the sap of the maple tree… and that’s all.
