    What ingredients do I need to make this recipe?

    • Pineapple: Make sure to use fresh pineapple to get the best results for this dessert!
    • Brown sugar: This sugar gives a deep, caramel-like flavor to this dish.
    • Butter: Salted or unsalted works just fine!
    • Cinnamon: This recipe calls for a dash of cinnamon to elevate the flavor.

    How to make caramelized brown sugar pineapple:

    • Mix together the melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
    • Brush the brown sugar mixture over each side of the sliced pineapple.
    • Grill the pineapple for around 8 minutes (flip halfway through), and remove once golden brown.

    Tips for this recipe:

    • After grilling, I like to brush the pineapple with any leftover brown sugar mixture!
    • Serve alone or with ice cream.
    • Make sure to wipe the grill before using so you don’t get any unwanted flavors!

    Can I use a different fat besides butter?

    I have only used butter for this recipe, however if you want to make this recipe vegan, you can use a neutral oil like canola or vegetable oil! I would not use any stronger flavored oils because it could disrupt the flavor of this dish!

    Can I make this recipe vegan?

    Yes! Just replace the butter with canola or vegetable oil.
