How to Make Pineapple Flowers

Directions

Step 1

Pre heat oven to 250F

Step 2

Cut off top and outside rind on the pineapple

Step 3

Scoop or cut out any thorns still on the fruit

Step 4

With a large chefs knife cut thin slices. The thiner they are the faster and better results you will get.

Step 5

Place the silpats or parchment on the baking sheets

Step 6

Place each slice onto the silpats. Its ok of the touch.

Step 7

Sprinkle a little bit of sugar on each slice on both sides.

Step 8

Put into the oven for about 30 – 40 minutes depending on your stove. You may need to lower the heat to 250F if necessary depending on your oven so they won’t burn. I personally think the brown edges are prettier and taste better.

Step 9

In the meantime, gather your muffin tins.

Step 10

Once the pineapple slices are at the color you desire, transfer each one to the muffins tins and set them in the cups.They will fold naturally like flowers. Make sure you do this while they are still warm to take shape.

Step 11

Let cool and cover with a tea towel to set up overnight is best.

Step 12
