Cinnamon Honey Grilled Pineapple

Pineapple is delicious. Plain and simple. It almost tastes more like a candy than a fruit – which is why it makes for the perfect dessert when hosting a “healthy barbecue.” 

This pineapple is extra special because it’s been brushed with a cinnamon honey sauce and then grilled. Have you ever grilled pineapple? It’s awesome! Grilling the fruit brings out an extra special sweetness and the cinnamon honey sauce caramelizes with the heat. You can serve it on its own or with a side of ice cream! Either way, it’s a much less caloric option to brownies and pie and cookies.
