STEP 1

In a bowl, mix together the cream cheese, grated carrot, parsley, dill, salt, pepper, lemon zest and lemon juice until smooth and fully combined

STEP 2

Cut each croissant in half. Gently push the soft inside from the centre to the outer sides to create a cavity for piping

STEP 3

Spoon the cream cheese mixture into a piping bag (or zip-lock bag with the corner snipped)

Pipe generously into each croissant half, filling from end to end

STEP 5

Finish with a small sprig of parsley on top of each one to make them look like carrots
