If you enjoy sweet grilled pineapple, you are going to love this Air Fryer Grilled Pineapple recipe. The yummy caramelized sugars, make this pineapple just melt in your mouth.

Every time we visit our favorite steakhouse, they serve a side of grilled pineapple. I couldn't wait to try it in the air fryer, because let's face it, sometimes going out to eat isn't in our budget.

Making this pineapple in the air fryer is so easy, and the flavors combine so perfectly as it cooks. The pineapple comes out soft, juicy, and perfectly sweet.

What you need to make Air Fryer Grilled Pineapple

Grilled Pineapple is so very easy to make, and most of the ingredients you will already have in your kitchen. To make this recipe you will need:

  • pineapple, (like Dole Pineapple)
  • butter 
  • brown sugar
  • sugar
  • vanilla
  • cinnamon

Of course you will also need an air fryer to make this recipe. I made this in my Cosori 5.8 quart air fryer, but any air fryer will work.

How to make Grilled Pineapple in the Air Fryer

To begin making this recipe, you will want to find a nice ripe pineapple. When choosing a pineapple, try to find one that looks fresh has green leaves, and are soft.

Once you have your pineapple cut into slices, follow these steps to make the perfect grilled pineapple:

Uncooked pineapple pieces, covered in melted butter, sugars, and cinnamon, in an air fryer basket.
  1. Place the pineapple slices into a large bowl.
  2. Pour the melted butter into the bowl, and toss the pineapple until all of the pieces are well coated with the butter. 
  3. Add in the sugars, cinnamon, and vanilla. Toss the pineapple until they are evenly coated in the mixture. 
  4. Place the coated pineapple slices into the air fryer basket. 
  5. Cook at 380 degrees Fahrenheit for about 10 minutes. 
  6. Halfway through cooking, toss the pineapple and pour any remaining butter and sugar mixture from the bowl onto the pineapple.

After you are done cooking the pineapple, you can decide how you want to serve it. We like it as a yummy warm side dish, but it can also be a warm dessert topped with ice cream. Either way, you will love it.

FAQ'S about pineapple:

Are pineapples good for you?

Pineapples are full of vitamins, enzymes, and antioxidants. And even though they are sweet, they are actually pretty low in calories.

Can you reheat grilled pineapple?

Yes. You can reheat it for just a minute or two, but just keep an eye on it so that it doesn't dry out.
