Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Fresh pineapple
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Melted unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven's broiler to high and adjust the oven rack so it is about 6 inches from the broiler element.
Peel the pineapple and slice it into 1/2-inch thick rings. Remove the core of each ring using a small cookie cutter or a knife.
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, cinnamon, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until combined into a paste.
Place the pineapple rings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy clean-up.
Brush the brown sugar mixture evenly over both sides of each pineapple ring.
Broil the pineapple rings for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they begin to caramelize and develop a golden-brown color. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
Remove the pineapple rings from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm as a dessert, or pair with ice cream, yogurt, or a sprinkle of toasted coconut for added flavor.
