Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
If using canned pineapple rings, drain them well and pat them dry with a paper towel. Arrange the pineapple rings evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Brush the butter-honey-cinnamon mixture generously over each pineapple ring, making sure they are evenly coated.
Place a handful of blueberries (about 8-10 berries) in the center hole of each pineapple ring.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the pineapple rings are slightly caramelized and the blueberries are soft and juicy.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the rings cool for 2-3 minutes.
Serve the blueberry pineapple rings warm or at room temperature. Optionally, top with a dollop of vanilla yogurt and garnish with a fresh mint leaf for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.
