Learn how to make delicious Brown Sugar Grilled Pineapple. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

Ingredients

Scale

Creating this dish requires just a handful of ingredients, each contributing to the overall balance of flavors. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into rings
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (light or dark, depending on preference)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter (or coconut oil for a dairy-free option)
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon rum or vanilla extract for an extra layer of flavor

If you’re feeling adventurous, you can swap the brown sugar for coconut sugar or even maple syrup for a different twist. My grandma always said a recipe is just a starting point, and I love adding my own flair to things.

Instructions

Now, let’s walk through the steps to create this tantalizing dish:

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you’re using a stovetop grill pan, heat it on medium-high until it’s hot but not smoking.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the melted butter and stir until the mixture becomes a paste. If you’re adding rum or vanilla extract, mix it in at this stage.
  3. Brush each pineapple ring generously with the brown sugar mixture, ensuring it’s coated well but not dripping.
  4. Place the pineapple rings on the grill. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until you see beautiful grill marks and the sugar has caramelized.
  5. Remove from the grill and let them cool slightly before serving. The caramelized sugar will be hot!

Each time I follow these steps, I’m reminded of my grandma’s meticulous nature in the kitchen. She believed in the power of precision and love in cooking, and it’s something I strive to uphold in every dish.
