Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Before you begin, take the frozen croissant dough sheets out of the freezer and let them thaw at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes. You want them to be slightly softened and pliable, but not completely melted. Gently press the dough with your finger; it should yield slightly without being sticky. This ensures even cooking.
Step 2
Once your waffle maker is preheated, carefully place the slightly thawed croissant dough sheets onto the waffle plates. If the dough pieces are quite thick, you can gently press them down to fit the shape of the waffle maker for a more uniform bake.
Step 3
Close the lid of the waffle maker and press down gently. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the croissant dough is golden brown and crispy. The cooking time may vary slightly depending on your waffle maker’s heat. You’ll know they’re ready when they achieve a beautiful golden hue and a satisfying crispiness. Steam should no longer be escaping from the sides.
Step 4
Carefully remove the freshly baked croissant waffles from the waffle maker and place them on a serving plate. Get creative with your toppings! Sprinkle generously with sliced almonds for added crunch and nutty flavor, or drizzle with maple syrup for a touch of sweetness. For an extra decadent treat, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. These are a fantastic way to impress unexpected guests and elevate your home cafe experience.
