Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pineapple

    Cut the fresh pineapple into quarters, remove the core, and then slice each quarter into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Mix the Sugar and Spices

    In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Coconut Cream

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut cream and vanilla extract until smooth.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Caramelize the Pineapple

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the pineapple pieces. Sprinkle the sugar and spice mixture over the pineapple and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the pineapple is lightly caramelized and the sugar has melted.

  2. 5

    Add Coconut Cream

    Reduce the heat to low, pour the coconut cream mixture over the caramelized pineapple, and stir gently to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Serve the Ace Pineapple warm, garnished with fresh mint leaves and toasted coconut flakes on top.
