Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 300° F. Trim the pineapple from its skin and cut it into quarters, length-wise, from the top to bottom. Core the pineapple and lay each quarter down on its cut belly in a 8- by 12-inch baking dish. Sprinkle the top of each quarter evenly with the brown sugar and lay a stick of cinnamon over each half.

Use a vegetable peeler to zest strips of orange over the pineapple. Juice the orange, then pour the juice over the pineapple. Cut the butter into small pieces and dot the top of each pineapple quarter with roughly 1 tablespoon. Cover the baking dish with foil and cut 6 vents into the foil. Bake for approximately 2 hours (or longer, the pineapple is very forgiving!).

After two hours, remove the pineapple from the oven. Discard the cinnamon sticks and orange peel. Transfer the hot pineapple to a cutting board and, using a fork to brace it, cut it into 1-inch cubes. Place the cut pineapple back into the baking dish and stir it in the braising sauce. Serve the braised pineapple and its juices with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or some good old-fashioned whipped cream.
