Instructions
Preheat the Waffle Iron
Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high heat. Lightly spray both plates with cooking spray or brush with a small amount of melted butter to prevent sticking.
Prepare the Dough
Open the canned cinnamon roll dough and separate into individual rolls. Slightly flatten each roll with the palm of your hand so they will fit better on the waffle iron plate.
Cook the Rolls
Place one or two flattened rolls onto the waffle iron depending on its size. Close the lid and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until puffed and golden brown. Do not open the iron during the first 2 minutes.
Ice and Serve
Remove the cinnamon roll waffles carefully with tongs and drizzle with the included icing packet while still warm. Serve immediately for the best gooey texture.
