Ingredients

  • 2 ripe pineapples, peeled, cored and cut into wedges
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup honey

Instructions

  1. Place the pineapple wedges in a large bowl.
  2. Combine 1 cup of orange juice and 1/4 cup of honey in a microwave safe bowl. Heat the mixture until warm, about 15 seconds. Pour the mixture over the pineapple wedges and set aside for 30 minutes. Toss a few times so the pineapple really soaks up the juice and honey.
  3. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  4. Place the pineapple wedges on the baking sheet in a single layer. Set aside the left over juice for later.
  5. Roast the pineapple for about 5 to 10 minutes, turn the pineapple wedges, and roast for another 5 to 10 more minutes or until they're tender.
  6. Now, arrange them on a large plate and drizzle the remaining juice on top and serve warm.
