Ingredients
  

For the Pineapple

  • 1 medium Fresh Pineapple Choose a ripe pineapple for maximum sweetness and flavor.

For the Sweet Coating

  • 2 tablespoons Light Brown Sugar Coconut sugar works as a healthier alternative.

Instructions
 

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (204°C) for about 5 minutes.
  • Peel the fresh pineapple and cut into bite-sized cubes. Place in a large mixing bowl.
  • Drizzle in melted butter (or coconut oil) and toss with brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well-coated.
  • Arrange the coated pineapple cubes in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overcrowding.
  • Air fry the pineapple for about 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.
  • Once done, let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with shredded coconut or honey if desired.

Notes

For best results, serve immediately after cooking to enjoy the warm, caramelized flavors. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
