Recipe View Prepare the Pineapple: Slice off the top and bottom of the pineapple. Cut the pineapple lengthwise into quarters. Remove the tough core from each quarter. Carefully run a sharp knife between the fruit and the skin, separating the fruit while leaving it attached to the skin at the base. This creates a visually appealing 'boat'. Slice the fruit crosswise into bite-sized pieces within the skin. (15 minutes)

Recipe View Assemble and Broil: Arrange the pineapple quarters on a baking sheet. Evenly sprinkle each quarter with approximately 2 tablespoons of brown sugar and 2 tablespoons of flaked coconut. Broil until the coconut is golden brown and toasted, and the brown sugar is caramelized and bubbly. Watch carefully to prevent burning. (5-7 minutes)

Recipe View Serve Immediately: Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven. Serve the broiled pineapple warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of ground cinnamon or a dash of rum extract to the brown sugar before sprinkling it over the pineapple.
If you don't have flaked coconut, shredded coconut can be used as a substitute. Toasting the coconut separately in a dry pan before adding it to the pineapple will enhance its flavor.
The broiling time may vary depending on your oven. Keep a close eye on the pineapple to ensure it doesn't burn.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, but the texture will be best if served immediately.

    I love how easy this is to customize. I added some chopped macadamia nuts and a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness.
