Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 cups pineapple slices
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Using a sharp kitchen knife, cut your pineapple into about 2-inch pieces.
- In a large bowl, toss the diced pineapple with the honey, vanilla, and cinnamon until it is fully coated.
- Place the pineapple in the air fryer basket in a single layer and air fry at 400℉ (200°C) for 12-14 minutes, shaking halfway through. Be sure to watch them closely since cooking times will vary depending on your air-fryer. The pineapples are done when they are a golden brown color.
Notes
Expert Tips
- Be sure to cut the pineapple into similarly sized pieces so that it cooks evenly.
- Flip the pineapples halfway through cooking for an even caramelization.
- For easier clean-up, line your air-fryer with parchment paper or an air-fryer liner.
- Be sure to place the pineapple in a single layer. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to do 2 batches.
- Refrigerator - store leftover pineapple in an airtight container (sealed container) for up to 2-3 days. Reheat on low in the air fryer, in the oven, or in the microwave.
