Caramelised pineapple with Malibu ice cream
This no-churn Malibu ice cream is wonderfully easy to make – and definitely only for the grown-ups (buy a tub of vanilla for the younger contingent)

- 1 medium pineapple, peeled, sliced into 8 rounds and cored
- juice 1 lime (use the zest in the ice cream)
- 3 tbsp light brown sugar
For the ice cream
- 15g desiccated coconut
- 150g drained tinned pineapple, puréed
- 100ml Malibu or other coconut-flavoured rum
- 250g condensed milk
- 600ml double cream
- zest 1 lime
To serve (optional)
- shavings of fresh coconut
- lime wedges
Step by step
- Make the ice cream at least one day ahead. First, toast the desiccated coconut in a pan over a medium heat, for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and just starting to colour. Set aside to cool. In a stand mixer, whisk together the pineapple purée, coconut rum and condensed milk until well combined. Add the cream and continue to whisk until soft peaks have formed – don’t worry if your mixture seems a little runny at first; the peaks will form after about 5 minutes. Stir through the lime zest and the toasted coconut and transfer the mixture to an airtight container. Freeze for at least 8 hours, or ideally overnight, until firm – there’s no need to stir.
- Heat your barbecue or grill to high. Toss the pineapple rings in the lime juice and rub each slice with brown sugar on both sides. Barbecue the pineapple for 2-3 minutes each side or until caramelised.

Serve two pineapple rings per person, topped with a scoop of the Malibu ice cream, a scattering of fresh coconut and a lime wedge to squeeze over.Use up your leftoversThe recipe makes more than you’ll need; it’s delicious scooped into a cone and drizzled with caramel, or served with chocolate sauce for a boozy Bounty bar vibe.
