Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Fresh pineapple
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 2 scoops Vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
1. Begin by prepping the pineapple. Cut off the top and bottom, then slice away the outer skin. Remove the eyes using a small knife and cut the pineapple into 1/2-inch thick rings. If desired, remove the core from each ring using a small round cutter.
2. In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Brush each pineapple ring with the melted butter on both sides, then sprinkle the sugar-cinnamon mixture evenly over them.
3. Preheat your grill or a stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates or surface to prevent sticking.
4. Place the pineapple rings on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until grill marks appear and the pineapple is slightly caramelized.
5. While the pineapple is grilling, prepare the lime-honey drizzle. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and lime juice until well combined.
6. Once the pineapple is grilled, remove from heat and place on a serving platter. Drizzle the lime-honey mixture over the slices.
7. Optional: Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top for an extra indulgent treat.
8. Enjoy your Grilled Pineapple Delight!
