  2. Lightly butter a baking dish and evenly distribute pineapple over the bottom.




  3. Melt butter and brush it over the fruit.



  4. In a small bowl, combine sugar, cinnamon and ginger. Sprinkle evenly over the pineapple.



  5. Bake in a 180°C (350°F) oven for 30 minutes.



  6. Serve the fruit topped with vanilla ice cream and the warm rum.

Selection & Storage: Choose pineapples that are slightly soft to the touch with green, crisp leaves. Pineapples are picked ripe; leaving them at room temperature a few days will soften them but not ripen. Refrigerate cut pineapple tightly wrapped up to 3 days.
