Easy 5-Minute Blackstone Pineapple Recipe
Description
Easy 5-Minute Blackstone Pineapple Recipe – Quick, caramelized pineapple cooked on a griddle for dessert, snack, or side dish.
Ingredients
- 1 whole pineapple
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar, optional
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, optional
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, optional
- 1/4 teaspoon lime zest, optional
- 1/4 teaspoon lemon zest, optional
Instructions
- Start by cutting off the top and bottom of the pineapple. Stand it upright and carefully slice off the skin, making sure to remove all the brown “eyes.”
- Slice the 1 whole pineapple into rounds or wedges, based on your preference. Leave the core in for presentation when using rounds, or remove it with a small cookie cutter or knife before serving.
- Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium or medium-high heat, then lightly brush the surface with 2 tablespoons cooking oil.
- In a large bowl, mix melted 2 tablespoons butter or oil with 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Brush each pineapple slice or wedge generously on both sides with the mixture.
- When the griddle is hot, place the pineapple slices on it. Cook 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden caramelization and grill marks appear, adjusting time for thickness and heat.
- Once the pineapple slices are golden and caramelized, remove them from the griddle. For extra brightness, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon lime zest or 1/4 teaspoon lemon zest and garnish with fresh mint leaves. Serve warm, either on their own, alongside grilled meats, or topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a sweet finish.
