Ingredients

  • 4 cups fresh pineapple chunks (about 1 small pineapple)
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3 fresh mint leaves

Steps

  • 1
    In 12-inch skillet, cook pineapple over high heat 2 to 3 minutes or until edges turn golden brown and sugars begin to caramelize.
  • 2
    Place pineapple in food processor or blender. Add lime juice and honey; process 30 seconds or until smooth. Pour into ungreased 9-inch square (2-quart) glass baking dish. Stir in mint leaves. Cover; freeze 30 minutes.
  • 3
    With fork, scrape mixture to distribute ice crystals evenly. Freeze 30 minutes longer.
  • 4
    Scrape mixture again. Scoop into dessert dishes or cups. Serve immediately.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    You can use fresh or canned pineapple for this recipe.
  • tip 2
    A smaller baking dish can be used, but freezing will take longer. Repeat the freezing/scraping process every 30 minutes until the granita is firm.
