Sweet, caramel-ly air fryer pineapple! An absolutely perfect healthier dessert or side dish that you’ll want to devour.
PREPARATION TIME
Prep Time: 8 minutes
Cook Time: 12 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
2 heaping cups sliced pineapple from approx. ½ small pineapple
1 tablespoon vegan butter or margarine melted, optional
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Optional Chili Lime Dip
3 tablespoons cashew cream or vegan mayo
1 tablespoon lime juice approx. half a lime
½ teaspoon chili powder
Instructions
Peel, core and slice your pineapple and place about 2 heaping cups worth in a mixing bowl.
Combine the melted butter, maple syrup and cinnamon in a small bowl, then pour it over your pineapple slices. Mix gently to even coat the slices.
Then place them in a single layer (slightly overlapping is fine) in your fryer basket and air fry at 380 degrees F for 12-15 minutes, or until caramelized. Flip the pineapple once at the halfway point.
Enjoy warm or cold, as a side dish or dessert.
Optional Dip
If making the chili lime dip, combine the 3 ingredients in a small bowl while your pineapple is cooking.
Notes
Don’t dump the pineapple slices into your fryer basket. Instead, spoon them in one at a time to avoid breaking them, and prevent excess liquid from dripping down below your basket and smoking.
Leftovers keep refrigerated in a sealed container for 2-3 days.
