Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium pineapple (peeled, cored, and sliced)
  • 1/2 cup dark rum
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons butter (for frying)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil (for frying)
  • 1/4 cup toasted coconut flakes (for topping)
  • 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Pineapple: Start by peeling, coring, and slicing your medium pineapple into delightful rings or wedges.
  2. Make the Rum Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup dark rum, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
  3. Soak the Pineapple: Gently add the freshly sliced pineapple to the rum mixture and let them soak for at least 10 minutes.
  4. Fry the Pineapple: In a frying pan, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of coconut oil over medium heat until melted and bubbly.
  5. Remove and Fry: Carefully take the soaked pineapple from the rum mixture, allowing excess liquid to drip off. Fry each slice for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they turn golden brown and crispy.
  6. Serve Warm: Serve your warm Rum-Soaked Fried Pineapple topped with 1/4 cup toasted coconut flakes and optional chopped nuts for an extra crunch.
