Grilled Pineapple
- 1 pineapple
- 1 cup apricot jelly
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- Vanilla ice cream, for serving
- Prepare a grill for medium heat.
- Cut the pineapple in half lengthwise from the very top to the bottom (keeping the leaves on).
- Then cut each half lengthwise in half again, so you have 4 long pieces with leaves at one end.
- Add the jelly, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon and salt to a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.
- Cook, stirring, until the mixture is fully combined and liquid.
- Brush the pineapple with some of the mixture (reserve the remaining mixture), transfer to the grill and grill 3 to 4 minutes per side.
- Remove to a platter and, using a sharp knife, cut the bottom ends off each piece of pineapple.
- Then, carefully cut lengthwise from the bottom to the top of each piece along the skin (separating the fruit from the skin), and then crosswise into 1-inch pieces.
- Drizzle the remaining apricot mixture over the pineapple.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream.
