The best part is that this works perfect for when you’re craving something sweet or if you need one final side dish for your fancy dinner! Seriously, you can’t go wrong with this!

Let’s get started!

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Do NOT cut off the crown. Cut the pineapple in to quarters lengthwise. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the hard pineapple core off from each quarter and discard. Make about 9-10 cuts on each pineapple quarter, making each piece a little less than ½” thick.

Run the knife between the flesh and the pineapple skin until the pieces come loose. Slide the pieces in opposite directions. Transfer to a baking sheet and set aside.

In a small saucepan, add the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, clove powder, nutmeg powder, and salt. Cook on low heat for about 5 minutes or until the sugar has dissolved and everything is combined. Brush about a third of the brown sugar mixture on to the pineapple pieces.
