Prep Time:15 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 whole fresh pineapple
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoons salt
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the pineapple. Cut off the top and base, then carefully slice away the outer skin, ensuring to remove the 'eyes'. Cut the pineapple into slices approximately 1/2 inch thick and remove the core from each slice using a round cutter or knife.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the honey, lime juice, lime zest, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined to make the glaze.

Step 3

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates by brushing with coconut oil to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Brush each pineapple slice generously with the honey-lime glaze on both sides.

Step 5

Place the pineapple slices on the preheated grill. Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until grill marks appear and the pineapple is tender.

Step 6

Remove the grilled pineapple from the grill and let it cool slightly.

Step 7

Drizzle any leftover glaze over the warm pineapple slices if desired. Serve immediately, garnished with additional lime zest if preferred.
