Source: Found on Pinterest
Ingredients
- 1/2 c. dark rum
- 1/2 c. packed brown sugar
- 1 t. ground cinnamon
- 1 pineapple, cored and cut into about 6-8 rings
- your favorite vanilla ice cream
- cooking spray or oil
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix together rum, brown sugar and cinnamon. In a glass baking dish, lay out the pineapple rings and pour the rum mixture over them. Toss to coat, then let soak for at least 15 minutes, flipping the pineapple midway through.
When you are ready to grill the pineapple, strain out the extra rum sauce from the pan and transfer it to a small saucepan. Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 6-8 minutes or until reduced by half. Set aside.
While the sauce is cooking, lightly coat grill rack with cooking spray or oil using a paper towel. Get grill up to a medium temperature. Place pineapple slices on rack and cook for a few minutes until browned and grill marks appear. Turn over and continue to grill other side.
Transfer individual slices to serving plates. Top each pineapple ring with a scoop of ice cream and drizzle with rum sauce. Serve immediately.
NOTE: You can also grill using a grill pan on your stove top.
