Croffle: The Ultimate Home Cafe Dessert
Make Delicious Croffles at Home Using Croissant Dough!
While croissant dough is delicious baked in an oven or air fryer, shaping it into a waffle and grilling it creates a dessert that delights both the eyes and the palate. This combination of buttery croissant dough and waffle texture, known as a ‘croffle,’ is wonderful. Adding toppings like ice cream, maple syrup, cheese, or fruits elevates it further, allowing you to enjoy a cafe-worthy experience right in your own home.
Ingredients
- 1 Frozen croissant dough sheet
- 1 scoop Ice cream (optional, to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Before grilling, let the croissant dough sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes. This helps prevent it from sticking to the waffle maker and ensures it cooks more evenly.
Step 2
Carefully place the slightly thawed croissant dough onto a preheated waffle maker. Gently press it down to fit the waffle pattern for a beautiful shape.
Step 3
Close the waffle maker and grill, turning it occasionally, until both sides are golden brown. It’s important to check the doneness by opening the lid periodically to achieve your desired crispiness and color. Be careful not to overcook, as it may burn.
Step 4
Once the croissant dough is fully cooked through, it will puff up slightly to match the waffle shape and turn a mouthwatering golden brown. The flaky texture will look even more enticing.
Step 5
Arrange the beautifully cooked croffle on a plate. Top with a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream, and drizzle with maple syrup, or add fresh fruits and whipped cream as desired for a luxurious home cafe dessert that rivals any bakery. Even with just ice cream, it’s incredibly delicious!
