Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (diced) Fresh pineapple
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 0.25 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the diced pineapple, brown sugar, water, and a pinch of salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure the sugar dissolves.
After about 5 minutes, add the lemon juice and ground cinnamon. Stir well to incorporate the flavors.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water until smooth. Gradually add the cornstarch mixture to the saucepan while stirring continuously to thicken the sauce.
Cook the sauce for an additional 3–5 minutes, allowing it to reach a glossy, syrupy consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent lumps.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Allow the sauce to cool slightly before serving. It thickens further as it cools.
Serve warm or at room temperature over ice cream, pancakes, waffles, or grilled meats. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
