This simple grilled pineapple recipe is perfect for beginners and requires minimal preparation. The key to success is getting your grill to the right temperature and watching the pineapple carefully to prevent burning. The result is a warm, caramelized treat that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with ice cream for a more indulgent dessert.
For variations, try adding a pinch of chili powder to the cinnamon-sugar mixture for a sweet-spicy kick, or substitute coconut ice cream for vanilla to enhance the tropical flavors. This recipe also works well with other firm fruits like peaches or nectarines during summer months.
