Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Fresh pineapple
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Dark rum
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flakes (optional, for garnish)
- 2 scoops Vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven's broiler on high and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Peel the pineapple, remove the core, and cut it into 1/2-inch thick rings or wedges.
Arrange the pineapple slices on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of brown sugar evenly over the pineapple slices and set aside.
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, dark rum, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to the saucepan. Stir well and let the mixture simmer for 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat and set aside.
Place the pineapple under the broiler and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the edges are slightly caramelized. Keep a close watch to prevent burning.
Remove the pineapple from the oven and transfer the slices to serving plates.
Drizzle the warm rum sauce generously over the broiled pineapple.
Optionally, garnish with toasted coconut flakes and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side for an extra indulgent touch.
