This Grilled Pineapple is the fruit dessert of summer! Each slice is grilled until the butter and sugar caramelize. Made with just 4 ingredients, this dish is quick and easy to whip up.
Start by cutting off the green top. Next, remove skin and core (see my note below for a tool recommendation).
1 fresh pineapple
Slice the pineapple into rings, then each ring in half. You can also cut it into spears or just rings. I prefer to cut it into half rings because it’s easy to flip them on the grill.
In a medium bowl, melt butter. Add brown sugar and cinnamon. Stir until sugar dissolves.
¼ cup unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar, ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Arrange pineapple slices on a plate and brush each one with butter mixture.
Grill on hot grill or grill pan for 2 to 3 minutes, on each side, until golden brown.
Serve right away.
Notes
I highly recommend a pineapple corer and slicer tool. You can find a ton on Amazon or any major retailers. It’s super helpful and you don’t have to deal with the brown dots after cutting of the skin.
Serve it with vanilla ice cream, berries and mint or eat it plain, right away. It’s a fun way to enjoy this tropical fruit!
