Ingredients
  • ½ cup (packed) dark brown sugar
  • ½ cup fresh orange juice
  • 3 tablespoons raw honey
  • 1 medium ripe pineapple, peeled, cored, cut lengthwise into 8 wedges
  • ¼ cup crème fraîche or yogurt
  • ⅓ cup natural unsalted pistachios, coarsely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons torn fresh mint leaves
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Stir first 3 ingredients in a large bowl until sugar dissolves. Add pineapple; toss to coat. Let marinate, tossing occasionally, for 10 minutes. Place pineapple, one flat side down, on prepared sheet; reserve marinade.
  2. Roast pineapple for 15 minutes. Turn, brush with marinade, and roast until tender and caramelized, 10-15 minutes. Drizzle remaining marinade over; let cool slightly.
  3. Divide pineapple among plates. Spoon crème fraîche alongside. Garnish with nuts and mint.
