• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 pint store-bought mango sorbet
• 6 leaves fresh mint leaves
• 2 tablespoons coconut flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Peel the pineapple and slice it into 1/2-inch thick rings. Remove the core from each ring, if desired.

Peel the bananas and slice them in half lengthwise.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon together.

Step 5

Lightly brush the pineapple rings and banana halves with lemon juice, then sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture evenly over the fruit.

Step 6

Place the pineapple slices on the preheated grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until grill marks appear and the fruit begins to caramelize.

Step 7

Add the banana halves to the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are soft and have grill marks.

Step 8

Remove the grilled fruit from the grill and let it cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

To serve, place a few slices of grilled pineapple and a banana half on each plate. Add a scoop of mango sorbet to the side.

Step 10

Garnish each plate with fresh mint leaves and, if desired, sprinkle with coconut flakes for added texture.

Step 11
