Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Lightly grease a square 8x8-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced pineapple, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, the vanilla extract, and the chili powder. Toss well to ensure the pineapple is evenly coated.
Spread the pineapple mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish and set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix the flour, rolled oats, ground cinnamon, salt, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of brown sugar.
Melt the butter and pour it into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Add the honey and stir until the mixture becomes crumbly and all ingredients are well-incorporated.
Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the top of the pineapple in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crisp, and the pineapple is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent dessert.
