Ingredients:
- 1 fresh pineapple
- 1/4 cup honey
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Pineapple:
- Start by peeling the pineapple and then cutting it into 4 wedges.
- Slice off and discard the core from each wedge.
- Cut each pineapple section into narrower wedges or triangles. You can also opt to thread these onto skewers for easy grilling.
-
Marinate with Honey:
- Place the pineapple wedges or triangles in a glass or stainless steel bowl.
- Drizzle the honey over the pineapple, ensuring each piece is coated evenly.
- Let the pineapple marinate in the honey for at least 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. For a more intense flavor, you can marinate it for several hours or even overnight in the refrigerator.
-
Preheat the Broiler:
- While the pineapple is marinating, preheat your broiler.
- Line a baking pan with parchment paper or foil coated with nonstick spray. This will prevent the honey from sticking to the pan during broiling.
-
Broil the Pineapple:
- Once the broiler is heated, place the marinated pineapple pieces on the prepared baking pan.
- Put the pan under the broiler and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the edges of the pineapple turn light brown.
- For even cooking, remember to turn the thicker pieces once during the cooking process, using long-handled metal tongs.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once the pineapple is nicely caramelized and golden brown, remove it from the broiler.
- Serve the honeyed pineapple warm as a delightful dessert or refreshing snack. It pairs perfectly with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.

- Customize Your Marinade: Feel free to experiment with additional flavorings in the honey marinade, such as lime juice, cinnamon, or grated ginger, to add extra depth to the dish.
- Grilling Option: If you prefer, you can grill the honeyed pineapple instead of broiling it. Simply preheat your grill to medium-high heat and cook the pineapple for 2-3 minutes per side, or until grill marks appear.
