Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 8 rounds (each 1/4 inch thick) peeled pineapple (1 small pineapple or 1/2 large)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup amaretto (almond-flavored liqueur)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise, seeds scraped and reserved
  • Pinch of salt
  • Amaretto Pound Cake with Flambeed Pineapple

Directions

Cut each pineapple round into 4 wedges. Trim core from point of each wedge, and discard; set wedges aside.

Heat sugar in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring, until sugar melts and turns golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add pineapple; toss to combine.

Stand back, and carefully pour in liqueur; immediately tilt skillet slightly, and ignite alcohol. When flames subside and caramel melts, stir in cream, lemon juice, vanilla seeds, and salt. Reduce heat to medium; let sauce boil, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Spoon pineapple and sauce over cake slices, and serve immediately.

      Cook's Notes

Never pour alcohol from the bottle onto food on the stove–any splashes can ignite. On an electric stove, carefully use a long match to ignite the alcohol.
