Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups hot water
1/2 cup white rum
1/2 vanilla bean, scraped
1 pineapple
1/2 cup shredded coconut, toasted (see page 88)
1 pint rum raisin ice cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a pot, stir together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Add the hot water slowly, whisking constantly. Place the pot over high heat and bring the mixture to a simmer while continuing to whisk. Turn off the heat once the sauce has thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the rum and the vanilla scrapings; stir to incorporate.
  • Cut the top and bottom off the pineapple with a large sharp knife. Stand the pineapple up on the counter and slice off the rind from top to bottom; then cut it into thirds lengthwise. Cut the wedges in half the short way so you have six thick chunks; remove the cores. Put the pineapple wedges on a nonstick cookie sheet and ladle them with half of the rum sauce. Bake for 30 minutes; then switch the oven to broil and cook until the pineapple is caramelized, 10 to 15 minutes. Serve a hunk of pineapple covered with remaining rum sauce, toasted coconut, and 2 scoops of ice cream.

I love the way the pineapple caramelizes in the oven. It gives the dish a slightly smoky flavor that pairs perfectly with the creamy sauce.

This is a great recipe for a healthy dessert. The roasted pineapple is naturally sweet and the sauce is made with low-fat yogurt. I feel good about eating this dessert and it satisfies my sweet tooth.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover pineapple. I had some extra pineapple from a fruit salad and I decided to try this recipe. I'm so glad I did! The roasted pineapple is delicious and the sauce is perfect.

I'm not a big fan of rum, but I still loved this dish. The pineapple and coconut are the stars of the show, and the sauce is just sweet enough without being overpowering.
