Roasted pineapple with honey and pistachios is a delightful dessert that combines the natural sweetness of pineapple with the rich flavors of honey and the crunch of pistachio nuts. This simple yet elegant dish is perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth while also being a healthy treat.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel, core, and slice the pineapple into rings or large wedges.
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and half of the chopped pistachio nuts. Mix well to ensure even distribution.
Place the pineapple slices on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased. Sprinkle the brown sugar and pistachio mixture evenly over the pineapple slices.
5. Bake:
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the pineapple for about 15-20 minutes, or until the sugar has caramelized and the pineapple is tender.
While the pineapple is roasting, combine the orange juice and honey in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat until the mixture begins to simmer. Allow it to reduce slightly, forming a syrupy consistency. Remove from heat.
Once the pineapple is done roasting, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
8. Plate the Dessert:
Arrange the roasted pineapple slices on a serving platter. Drizzle with the honey-orange syrup. Add a dollop of Greek yogurt on the side or directly on top of the pineapple slices.
Sprinkle the remaining chopped pistachio nuts and finely chopped spearmint over the top for a fresh and crunchy garnish.
Serve warm and enjoy your delightful roasted pineapple with honey and pistachios.
Tips:
- Make sure to use a ripe pineapple to ensure maximum sweetness and flavor.
- Toasting the pistachios lightly before adding them to the dish can enhance their flavor.
- If you don't have Greek yogurt, you can substitute with plain yogurt or even vanilla ice cream for a more indulgent treat.
- Fresh spearmint adds a refreshing touch; however, if you can't find it, you can use dried mint or leave it out entirely.
- For an extra layer of flavor, you can add a dash of cinnamon or a squeeze of lime juice to the pineapple before roasting.
This roasted pineapple with honey and pistachios recipe is an effortless and exquisite dessert that can impress your guests or simply provide a tasty ending to a family meal. The combination of the fruit's caramelized sweetness, creamy yogurt, and crunchy nuts creates a stunning harmony of flavors and textures. Enjoy!
