Pineapple Sundae
Griddled pineapple, coconut whipped cream, and crispy vanilla ice cream bring the tropics right to your kitchen.
Ingredients
- Coconut Whipped Cream
- 1 cup (250 mL) heavy cream
- ¼ cup (60 mL) powdered sugar
- ½ tsp (2 mL) coconut extract
- Ice Cream Balls
- 2 cups (500 mL) crushed sweetened corn flake cereal
- 3 cups (750mL) vanilla ice cream
- Griddled Pineapple
- 1 pineapple, cored and trimmed
- 1 cup (250 mL) brown sugar
- 2 tsp (10 mL) ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp (5 mL) ground ginger
- ½ tsp (2 mL) salt
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) butter
- For Serving
- 1 lime for zesting
Directions
- Add all the whipped cream ingredients to the container of the Whipped Cream Maker & Decorator. Replace the lid and rotate to secure. Pump the handle until stiff peaks form, about 1–2 minutes. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Place the crushed cereal into a small dish or bowl.
- Using an ice cream scoop, make 2” (5-cm) scoops of ice cream. Gently roll them into balls, then coat them with the cereal, pushing down to make sure the cereal sticks. Transfer the coated balls to a small cookie sheet. Repeat until you have 12 balls. Place in the freezer until ready to serve.
- Preheat the Cast Iron Sizzle Skillet over medium-low heat.
- Slice the pineapple into 1” (2.5-cm) half-moons.
- Combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and salt in a coating tray and stir. Dip the pineapple slices into the brown sugar-cinnamon mixture and flip to coat.
- Melt the butter in a preheated skillet and move around to coat the pan.
- Cook the pineapple until it’s bubbly and browned, about 2–3 minutes per side. Repeat as needed until all the slices are cooked.
- To serve, place 2 ice cream balls in a bowl, top with 2 pieces of pineapple, a scoop of the coconut whipped cream, and finely grate lime zest over the top.

Cook's Tips:
The sauce that comes out of the pineapple makes a great syrup. Use it over the ice cream, on pancakes, or anything that you’d like!
Swap the cereal for cinnamon-toast flavored cereal for a different spin.
