Start by preparing the pineapple. Cut off the top and base, then carefully slice away the outer skin, ensuring to remove the 'eyes'. Cut the pineapple into slices approximately 1/2 inch thick and remove the core from each slice using a round cutter or knife.
In a small bowl, mix together the honey, lime juice, lime zest, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined to make the glaze.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates by brushing with coconut oil to prevent sticking.
Brush each pineapple slice generously with the honey-lime glaze on both sides.
Place the pineapple slices on the preheated grill. Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until grill marks appear and the pineapple is tender.
Remove the grilled pineapple from the grill and let it cool slightly.
Drizzle any leftover glaze over the warm pineapple slices if desired. Serve immediately, garnished with additional lime zest if preferred.
