I did this on Sunday and my family loved it! I have a round waffle maker so I cut the crescents into 4 small squares and I sprinkled a bit of cinnamon before putting them on the maker. I then used a mixture of strawberry jam with fresh strawberries and bananas, and the family loved it! My husband could not believe that they were crescents. This is the one recipe I will be keeping (and sharing) with others. Thanks!

This was really convenient to make and easily scaled down for two (just get the small 4oz tube of crescents). I have a round waffle maker, so I just cut the unrolled (4oz) crescents into four small squares and just made a smaller square waffles. I also used strawberry jam and yogurt as someone suggested and it was a delicious alternative.
