Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Fresh pineapple
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- as needed Cooking spray or melted butter
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F).
Cut off the top and bottom of the pineapple, then slice off the skin. Use a knife or corer to remove the eyes and the core, if desired.
Cut the pineapple into rings about 1/2 inch thick, or into wedges if preferred.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, honey, ground cinnamon, and lime juice to create a glaze.
Lightly coat the grill grates with cooking spray or brush with melted butter to prevent sticking.
Brush the pineapple slices with the glaze mixture on both sides.
Place the pineapple on the preheated grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until grill marks appear and the pineapple softens slightly.
Remove from the grill and serve warm as a dessert or side dish. Optionally, garnish with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a sprinkle of chopped mint.
