Ingredients
- 1 whole pineapple peeled and cored
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your air fryer to 375°F.
- While the air fryer is preheating, prepare your pineapple. Slice the peeled and cored pineapple into 8 rings, each about 1/2-inch thick. This thickness allows the pineapple to become tender while still holding its shape during the cooking process.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the light brown sugar and ground cinnamon.
- Generously sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over both sides of the pineapple rings. The sugar will caramelize in the air fryer.
- Arrange the pineapple rings in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Cook the pineapple rings in the air fryer for about 8 minutes on one side, then flip them and cook for an additional 8 minutes on the other side. Keep an eye on the pineapple as it cooks to prevent burning.
- Once the pineapple rings are caramelized, remove them from the air fryer. They should be served warm.
