Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Pineapple
- 4 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 pinch Salt
- n/a Optional: shredded coconut or whipped cream for garnish
Instructions
Preheat an outdoor grill, grill pan, or griddle to medium heat.
Cut the top, bottom, and outer skin off the pineapple. Remove any remaining eyes. Slice the pineapple into rings about 1/2-inch thick, and core the center if desired.
In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, honey, unsalted butter, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Heat over low heat until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth. Stir to combine, then set aside.
Brush one side of each pineapple ring with the glaze mixture.
Place the pineapple rings glaze side down onto the preheated grill or griddle. Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until grill marks appear.
Brush the top side of the pineapple rings with the glaze, then flip and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes. Keep brushing the pineapple with more glaze as it cooks for extra flavor and stickiness.
Once caramelized and heated through, remove the pineapple from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.
Optional: Sprinkle shredded coconut on top or serve with a dollop of whipped cream for garnish.
Serve warm and enjoy your sticky chargrilled pineapple!
