Ingredients

• 2 whole Ruby red grapefruit
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 0.5 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground cardamom
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (optional, for garnish)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your broiler to high and position an oven rack about 4-6 inches from the heat source.

Step 2

Slice each grapefruit in half horizontally and use a small paring knife or grapefruit knife to loosen the segments from the membrane without removing them. This makes the grapefruit easier to eat once broiled.

Step 3

Place the grapefruit halves cut side up on a baking sheet or in a broiler-safe dish.

Step 4

In a small bowl, combine the honey, vanilla extract, and ground cardamom. Mix well to create a smooth syrup.

Step 5

Evenly drizzle the honey vanilla cardamom mixture over the cut sides of each grapefruit half, ensuring it coats the surface and seeps into the segments.

Step 6

Place the prepared grapefruit halves under the broiler and broil for 4-5 minutes, or until the tops are bubbling and slightly caramelized. Keep a close eye on them to avoid burning.

Step 7

Remove the grapefruit from the oven and let them cool for 1-2 minutes.

Step 8

If desired, lightly sprinkle with ground cinnamon and garnish with fresh mint leaves for added flavor and a pop of color.

Step 9

Serve warm with a spoon and enjoy this sweet and spiced treat!
