Preparation

Step 1

Stand the pineapple upright and vertically cut a third from one side, leaving the leaves attached. Set cut piece aside. Using a paring or grapefruit knife, remove strips of pineapple from large section, leaving a 1/2-in in shell; discard core. Cut strips into bite-sized chunks. Invert shell onto paper towels to drain.

Remove fruit from small pineapple piece and cut into chunks; discard peel. Place shell in a serving basket or bowl.

In another bowl, mix pineapple chunks, oranges, strawberries, and grapes. Combine yogurt, 1/4 cup coconut and extract; spoon over fruit and stir gently. Spoon into pineapple shell. Sprinkle with remaining coconut.
