Ingredients

  • ¼ cup packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup dark spiced rum
  • 1 pineapple, peeled, cored, halved lengthwise and sliced lengthwise into 12 wedges
  • 2 tablespoons coconut, toasted
  • Coconut sorbet or low-fat vanilla ice cream to serve with the pineapple slices

Instructions

  • Combine the brown sugar and rum in a microwave safe bowl. Cook on high for one minute. Stir and if the brown sugar is not yet dissolved, cook for 30 seconds.
  • Pour the rum mixture over the pineapple slices and set aside. Heat the grill and brush the grates with oil. If you prefer the pineapple can be grilled inside using a panini pan. If using a non-stick pan there is no need to oil the pan. Grill over medium heat until marks form and the pineapple is heated through. Sprinkle with coconut and serve with the sorbet and drizzle with any remaining rum syrup.
