1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 300 grams of all-purpose flour, 7 grams of active dry yeast, 30 grams of sugar, and 5 grams of salt.
2. Warm 150 milliliters of dairy-free milk until lukewarm, and add to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.
3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
4. While the dough is rising, place 200 grams of dairy-free butter between two sheets of parchment paper. Use a rolling pin to flatten it into a rectangle about 1 cm thick. Leave it in the fridge to firm up.
5. Once the dough has risen, roll it into a rectangle approximately 30 x 40 cm on a lightly floured surface.
6. Place the chilled butter rectangle in the center of the dough. Fold over the edges of the dough to enclose the butter completely.
7. Roll the dough out to a thickness of about 1 cm and fold it into thirds, as you would a letter. Cover and chill for 30 minutes.
8. Repeat the rolling and folding process two more times, chilling the dough for 30 minutes between each turn.
9. After the final chilling, roll the dough into a large rectangle around 30 x 40 cm. Cut into 8 even triangles.
10. Spread approximately 15 grams of Biscoff spread onto each triangle.
11. Starting from the base, roll each triangle up into a croissant shape and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
12. Cover the croissants with a cloth and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes until puffy.
13. Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Brush the croissants with dairy-free milk for a golden finish.
14. Bake the croissants for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown and fully baked.
15. Allow them to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
