This Caramelized Brown Sugar Cinnamon Grilled Pineapple is a sweet and tropical treat, perfect for barbecues or as a simple dessert. Pineapple spears are coated in a buttery brown sugar and cinnamon glaze, then grilled to caramelized perfection, creating a warm, flavorful, and irresistible dish.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 pineapple, cut into spears
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pineapple: Lay the pineapple spears on a pan. Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon.
  2. Make the Glaze: Whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. If the glaze is thick, microwave briefly to thin.

  • Ensure your grill is clean to prevent sticking.
  • Serve warm for the best taste.
