Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for at least 4 hours
4 unpeeled ripe bananas, ends trimmed and cut into 2-inch chunks
1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into 2-inch chunks
1/2 cup turbinado sugar or 1/3 cup cane syrup
Zest and juice of 1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • 1. Make a lengthwise slice on the skin of each unpeeled banana chunk to allow easy peeling after bananas are grilled. Thread the fruit onto skewers, alternating chunks of banana and pineapple.
  • 2. To make the glaze, put the sugar in a stainless-steel saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until it becomes liquid, about 3 minutes. Stir with a wooden spoon and add the lemon juice and zest. If using cane syrup, simply add the lemon juice with zest and stir, without heating. Set aside.
  • 3. Fill a charcoal chimney with hardwood lump charcoal, set the chimney on the bottom grill grate, and light. When the coals are ready, dump them into the bottom of the grill and spread evenly. For a gas grill, turn to medium-high.
  • 4. Brush the skewered fruits with the glaze. Place the skewers over direct heat. Grill 3 minutes on each side, until fruit is browned. Remove from grill and brush again with the glaze. Serve immediately.

Roasted Mango, Pineapple, and Banana With Maple-Ginger Glaze image

This roasted-fruit trio makes an exotic winter dessert.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
6 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
6 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice (1 orange)
2 pineapples, peeled and cored
3 large ripe mangoes, peeled and pitted into halves
3 bananas, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Butter-flavor cooking spray

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees with two racks centered. In a medium bowl, combine the vanilla extract, maple syrup, ginger, and lemon juice.
  • Spray two 12-by-14-inch roasting or jelly-roll pans with cooking spray. Cut one pineapple into 1-inch rounds, and arrange in one roasting pan. Cut second pineapple into 1/2-inch rounds, and arrange in the other pan. Divide mango halves evenly between pans. Brush all fruit lightly with maple glaze. Roast fruit until it starts to brown slightly, 25 to 40 minutes; timing will vary with juiciness of pineapple. Use a spatula to turn fruit over, and brush with glaze again. Cook 10 minutes more. Divide banana pieces evenly between pans, brush with glaze, and cook until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Pour the remaining glaze into a small nonstick skillet. Place the skillet over medium heat, and reduce the liquid until it is thick, 4 to 6 minutes.
  • To serve, arrange 1-inch pieces of pineapple on six plates. Top with half a mango. Arrange 1/2-inch pineapple slices over mango. Arrange banana pieces around edge of plate. Pour a little glaze over each plate.

Tips:

  • To ensure your grilled pineapple and bananas are perfectly caramelized, make sure to use ripe fruits. Look for pineapples with a golden-yellow color and bananas that are bright yellow with a few brown spots.
  • For a smoky flavor, grill your pineapple and bananas over a charcoal grill. If you don't have access to a charcoal grill, you can use a gas grill or even a grill pan.
  • Before grilling, brush the pineapple and bananas with a marinade or glaze to prevent them from drying out. This will also help them caramelize and add flavor.
  • Keep an eye on your grilled pineapple and bananas while they're cooking. They can burn easily, so it's important to turn them frequently.
  • Once the pineapple and bananas are grilled to your liking, remove them from the grill and let them cool slightly before serving. You can then drizzle them with additional glaze, if desired.

Conclusion:

Grilled pineapple and bananas are a delicious and healthy treat that can be enjoyed on their own or as part of a larger meal. They're perfect for summer cookouts, parties, or even just a quick snack. With so many different ways to prepare them, you're sure to find a recipe that you love. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying treat, give grilled pineapple and bananas a try.
