Ingredients
- 1 whole (medium-sized) Fresh pineapple
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Dark rum
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 pinch Salt
- 0 as desired Vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Peel the pineapple, remove the core, and slice it into rings or chunks, depending on your serving preference. Set aside.
Step 2
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Step 3
Once the butter has melted, add the brown sugar and stir continuously until it fully dissolves, creating a caramel-like mixture.
Step 4
Slowly add the dark rum to the skillet, stirring to combine it with the caramel mixture. Be careful as it may sizzle and release steam.
Step 5
Stir in the cinnamon, vanilla extract, lime juice, and a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors of the sauce.
Step 6
Add the pineapple slices or chunks to the skillet, coating them in the rum sauce. Cook for about 3-5 minutes per side (if using rings), or until the pineapple is tender and slightly caramelized.
Step 7
Remove the skillet from heat and let it cool briefly before serving.
Step 8
Serve the pineapple warm, drizzled generously with the rum sauce. For an extra indulgent treat, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side.
