Ingredients

1 whole fresh pineapple, cored (about 20 oz.)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
Optional toppings or ingredients
6 scoops vanilla ice cream or 6 scoops frozen yogurt
1/4 cup toasted almond, slivered
1/4 cup toasted coconut
2 bananas, sliced
fresh whipped cream
1 dash cinnamon

Directions

1

Slice pineapple into eight rings and cut each ring into 8 pieces.
2

Warm butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. When butter begins to foam, add the pineapple and brown sugar (this is when you'd add the bananas if using that option).
3

Cook, stirring frequently and make sure you are turning the pineapple chunks over while stirring. This should take about 4-5 minutes - just until the pineapple is brown and all the sugar is dissolved.
4

Remove from heat and place into a shallow serving bowls and let cool 2-3 minutes.
5

Place a scoop of ice cream/frozen yogurt on each serving and top with other toppings if desired. Or you can serve with just a dollop of freshly whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
