Grilled Pineapple with Coconut Gelato

June 10, 2020 By Lindsay Forbes Leave a Comment

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Grilled pineapple with coconut gelato is the perfect summer dessert. It makes you feel like you are on vacation and you do not need to turn your oven on in the summer heat!

We tested a few methods for grilling pineapple and the best results came by brushing the pineapple slices with a brown sugar and maple syrup glaze. You only need a thin layer and it results in a caramelized pineapple with those quintessential grill marks.

We paired the grilled pineapple with coconut gelato and toasted flaked coconut.

Pineapple is one of my favorite tropical fruits! Have you all seen a pineapple farm? Here is a picture from Maui Pineapple Tours. I haven’t personally been here yet but it looks amazing!

If you are looking for other pineapple-themed things to do in Maui, I would recommend visiting Maui Wine for the pineapple wine (and sparking wine!) and Maui Brewing Co for the Pineapple Mana beer 🍍
