If you are looking for a tropical-inspired dessert to satisfy your cravings, this is all you need! Easy to prep, quick to make, and scrumptious! I am confident that no one can be able to say no to these succulent pineapple fried with aromatic cinnamon, butter, and honey.
The only trick is choosing the perfect pineapple. My mom said to look for pineapples with nice, vibrant yellow and green colours, with fresh-looking leaves. They should be firm but soft enough when slightly press. And finally, the smell. Pineapples with a sweet, pleasant smell near the stem on the bottom are the best.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 small pineapple
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
pinch of salt
vanilla ice cream for serving
