Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Fresh pineapple
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons Dark rum
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Peel the pineapple, remove the core, and slice it into rings or wedges, depending on your preference. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the brown sugar to the melted butter and stir until it is dissolved and the mixture becomes smooth, about 2 minutes.
Carefully pour in the dark rum and stir to combine. Let the mixture simmer for 1 to 2 minutes to cook off some of the alcohol.
Stir in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Continue to simmer the sauce for another 1 to 2 minutes, ensuring the flavors are well combined and the sauce thickens slightly.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the rum sauce cool slightly.
Arrange the pineapple slices on individual serving plates or a large platter.
Drizzle the warm rum sauce generously over the fresh pineapple slices.
Optionally, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent finish.
Enjoy your Fresh Pineapple with Rum Sauce while it's warm!
