Brown Sugar Grilled Pineapple

Caramelized pineapple brushed with cinnamon-brown sugar butter—this quick, flavor-packed treat is ready in 15 minutes and perfect as a dessert or side.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 fresh pineapple peeled and cut into ½-inch rings or spears
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil
  • Optional: Lime zest chili powder, or vanilla ice cream for serving

Instructions
 

  • Cut pineapple into ½-inch rings or spears. Pat dry with paper towels to help the sugar stick and avoid grill flare-ups.
  • Mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Brush pineapple with melted butter or coconut oil, then coat both sides with the sugar mix, pressing gently.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill pineapple 2–3 minutes per side until caramelized and grill-marked. Watch closely—sugar burns fast!
  • Serve right off the grill. Add ice cream, a splash of lime, or chili powder for an extra kick.
