Ingredients

• 1 whole fresh pineapple
• 4 tablespoons dark brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons spiced rum
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons sea salt
• 2 scoops (per serving) optional vanilla ice cream

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Prepare the pineapple by peeling it, removing the core, and slicing it into 1-inch thick rings or wedges.

Step 3

In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, then stir in the brown sugar, spiced rum, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sea salt until combined. Allow to simmer for 1-2 minutes to form a syrup.

Step 4

Arrange the pineapple slices in a single layer in a baking dish.

Step 5

Pour the rum syrup evenly over the pineapple, ensuring all pieces are coated.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, basting the pineapple with the syrup from the dish halfway through. The pineapple should be tender and caramelized at the edges.

Step 7

Remove the dish from the oven and let the pineapple cool slightly for 5 minutes.

Step 8

Serve warm, either on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
