Ingredients:
For the Griddled Pineapple:
- 1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into slices or rings
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
For the Sundaes:
- Vanilla ice cream
- Chopped nuts (such as almonds, walnuts, or pecans)
- Honey or caramel sauce (optional)
Instructions:
Prepare the Griddled Pineapple:
- Preheat your EaZy MealZ Non-Stick Square Grill Pan over medium heat. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Coat each pineapple slice or ring with the cinnamon-sugar mixture on both sides.
Griddle the Pineapple:
- Lightly grease the EaZy MealZ Non-Stick Square Grill Pan with a bit of oil or cooking spray. Place the coated pineapple slices or rings on the griddle and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they develop grill marks and caramelize slightly. Remove from the griddle and set aside.
Assemble the Sundaes:
Top generous scoops of vanilla ice cream on the side of the griddled pineapple slices or rings.
Add Toppings:
- Sprinkle chopped nuts over the pineapple and ice cream. Drizzle honey or caramel sauce over the sundae for extra sweetness, if desired.
Serve:
- Serve the grilled pineapple sundaes immediately and enjoy the contrasting textures and flavors of warm, caramelized pineapple with cool and creamy vanilla ice cream.
