Pineapple Crisp is a sweet island that uses chunks of fresh pineapple to inspire summer crisp. You can crumble with a generous amount of coconut-oat butter, and a sprinkle of slices of almond if you like, it bakes beautifully golden. Serve it in a la mode and enjoy fresh flavors in a typical crisp. I don’t know where this idea came from, but I’m so happy I did. I had seen some recipes for warm pineapple sundaes and grilled pineapple, and in any kind of dessert, I had never had warm pineapple.
Pineapple is perhaps one of my favorite fruits, and I love it. I am looking for every opportunity to use it in everything from appetizers to desserts as an ingredient. So, it was likely it would turn into a pineapple crisp. For me, it’s all about that buttery crumb topping when it comes to crisps. Although we associate pineapple with warm weather more often, I don’t book this crisp just for the warm summer months. It makes for a great dessert to serve year-round with ice cream. Pineapple crisp is perfect anytime with your coffee in the morning and with milk as a snack. It is a quick and simple recipe that you can throw together to feed family and friends whenever you need something tasty.
Ingredients:
(2) (20 oz) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup brown sugar
1 tsp baking powder
