Caramelized Pineapple Sundaes with Coconut

Recipe from Delish.com

Ingredients:

  • 1  (2-pound) pineapple, peeled, cored, and sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rings
  • 2 teaspoon(s) vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup(s) sweetened shredded coconut
  • 2 1/2 pint(s) fat-free vanilla frozen yogurt
  • Mint sprigs, for garnish

Directions:

  1. Light a grill. Brush the pineapple rings with the vegetable oil. Grill over moderately high heat, turning occasionally, until the pineapple is lightly charred and softened, about 8 minutes. Transfer the rings to a work surface and cut into bite-size pieces.
  2. In a medium skillet, toast the coconut over moderate heat until golden, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool.
  3. Scoop the yogurt into sundae glasses or bowls. Top with the grilled pineapple, sprinkle with the coconut, garnish with the mint sprigs, and serve right away.
