How To Make glazed pineapple with macadamia nut crunch

  • Step 1
    Preheat the broiler.
  • Step 2
    Cut the pineapple into 8 slices, each about 1-inch thick.
  • Step 3
    For a decorative presentation you might want to cut notched grooves 1 inch apart on the top of each slice to suggest the grooves of a scallop shell.
  • Step 4
    In a small bowl, combine the nuts, brown sugar and salt.
  • Step 5
    Add the butter and stir until well blended.
  • Step 6
    Place the pineapple slices on a baking sheet lined with foil.
  • Step 7
    Sprinkle with a few tablespoons of the nut mixture or arrange in a graphic pattern over each pineapple slice.
  • Step 8
    Broil the pineapple slices about 6 inches from the heat until the filling starts to caramelize, about 1 1/2 minutes.
  • Step 9
    Serve hot.
