Grilled Pineapple with Brown Sugar and Aleppo Pepper A Sweet and Spicy Delight

Pineapple, a tropical fruit adored for its sweet, tangy flavor and vibrant golden hue, is not only a feast for the eyes but also a powerhouse of nutrition.



Rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, this juicy fruit brings a burst of freshness to any dish.

Grilling pineapple caramelizes its natural sugars, enhancing its sweetness while imparting a warm, smoky flavor that is simply irresistible. Like with these Tropical Morning Bliss: Roasted Pineapple Macadamia Pancakes.



In this delightful recipe, we grill pineapple slices and marinate them with brown sugar for a sweet glaze, then garnish with Aleppo pepper for a touch of spice.



This approach is inspired by the vibrant Mexican tradition of adding Tajín to fresh fruit slices, creating a beautiful balance of flavor that excites the palate.

Enjoy this tropical treat at your summer barbecues or as a unique dessert that will leave everyone craving more!
