My Mom used to treat us with grapefruit made this way, only I add the addition of cinnamon butter. A delicious way to enjoy a grapefruit. I use light butter and Splenda brown sugar to cut down on fat and calories. Just as good! I don't just make these for breakfast. I make them anytime I'm craving grapefruit. Enjoy!

How To Make ~ my oh so tasty grapefruit ~

Step 1

Turn on broiler. Cut your grapefruit, evenly in half.

With a very sharp knife, go around the inside edge of skin and cut grapefruit loose. Then take knife and cut between membrane of grapefruit sections.

Place halves in an oven safe baking dish. Split the butter between the 2 grapefruit halves.Spread as evenly as can.

Spread 1 tablespoon brown sugar over each halve.

Place oven rack to second notch from the top. Broil for 8 - 10 minutes or until caramelizing and bubbly.
