Ingredients
  

Ingredients

  • 900 g Pineapple peeled, cored, and cut into 2.5 cm chunks
  • 10 g Light brown sugar optional, for glazing
  • 5 ml Neutral oil for spraying
  • Salt a pinch, to taste
  • Lemon or lime juice to taste
  • Cinnamon or chili powder optional spices

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer to 175–205°C. Spread the pineapple chunks out in a single layer in the basket.
  • Lightly spray with oil and add brown sugar or honey for extra caramelization if desired.
  • Cook for 8–12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even browning.
  • Look for golden edges and a slightly crisp exterior; adjust cooking time for desired crispiness. Let the pineapple rest for a minute before serving.

Notes

Tip: To avoid soggy pineapple, ensure the pieces are patted dry and spread out in a single layer for maximum caramelization.
