Directions

  1. Slice off crown and base, about 1 inch from top and bottom, respectively.
  2. Be careful to preserve as much of pineapple flesh. Stand pineapple up on flat bottom side. Using a serrated knife, start from the top and slice towards the bottom, following the natural curve of fruit with the knife until all rind is removed.
  3. Use a small paring knife to remove circular “eyes” left in pineapple flesh. Make shallow v-shaped cuts to remove eyes.
  4. Slice pineapple into ½ inch thick rounds. Use a small biscuit or round cookie cutter to remove core from center of each ring.
  5. <strong>NOTE</strong>: If using canned pineapple, drain pineapple and reserve canned juice for glaze. Omit additional ¾ cup 100% pineapple juice from recipe.
