Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Pineapple
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 4 scoops Pistachio ice cream
- 2 tablespoons Crushed pistachios
- 4 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the pineapple by peeling it, removing the core, and cutting it into 8 wedges.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar, honey, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
Arrange the pineapple wedges in a single layer on a baking dish lined with parchment paper.
Brush the butter-sugar mixture generously over the pineapple wedges, ensuring they are well coated.
Roast the pineapple in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until caramelized and golden brown.
Remove the roasted pineapple from the oven and let it cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
To serve, place 2 wedges of roasted pineapple on each plate. Add a scoop of pistachio ice cream beside the pineapple.
Sprinkle the crushed pistachios over the dish for added texture and garnish with fresh mint leaves, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy this tropical treat!
