Ingredients

  • 2 cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat a waffle iron. Melt butter and mix brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. 
  • Unroll the crescent dough and press 2 triangles together to form a rectangle. 
  • Brush with melted butter. 
  • Sprinkle each piece of crescent dough with about a tablespoon of cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Fold each rectangle into a square. Brush with butter and sprinkle with sugar. Flip and brush the other side with butter and sprinkle with more of the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Cook in a hot waffle iron 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Use tongs or a fork to remove to a wire rack in a single layer.
  • Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  • Cool slightly before serving. 

Notes

  • Storage: Store leftover croffles wrapped in plastic wrap or an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 3 days.
  • Reheat: Reheat in a toaster oven on a piece of parchment paper or aluminum foil for 3-4 minutes.
  • Cleaning the Waffle Maker: The butter, cinnamon and sugar will make a mess in your waffle iron. I found that letting the waffle iron cook and then using a wooden utensil like a spreader or a chopstick, it was easy to loosen the sugar mixture and then I wiped it clean with a damp cloth and paper towels.
