For the Pineapple
  • 1 medium Fresh Pineapple Choose a ripe pineapple for the best sweetness and juiciness.
  • 2 tablespoons Light Brown Sugar Adds delicious caramelization; can be swapped with coconut sugar for a healthier twist.

For the Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon A warm spice that complements the pineapple’s natural sweetness beautifully.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg Adds depth with its subtle nutty flavor; use sparingly to avoid overpowering the dish.
