Vanilla-Poached Pineapple Sauce image

This uses fresh pineapple. Use the sauce for topping low-fat pound cake or angel food cake, or ice cream. From Cooking Light. Cook time does not include chilling time. As suggested by Wicked cook, adjust the amount of water according to how much syrup you want. As per I'm Pat's suggestion, use the de-seeded vanilla bean to make vanilla sugar. See her review for instructions.

The pineapple flavor is perfectly balanced by the vanilla and spices. It's not too sweet or tart.
