Honey Brûléed Grapefruits

These AIP/paleo Honey Brûléed Grapefruits are a simple, delicious and low-sugar treat that are great as a dessert, snack or accompaniment to breakfast.

These Honey Brûléed Grapefruits take me back to my childhood. Growing up my mum would occasionally make me and my sister a special treat of simply prepared grapefruits, sliced in half and drizzled with condensed milk.

This dessert was so special not only because it was absolutely decadent, but because it was also a special treat that my grandma used to make for my mum as a child. I think of these honey brûléed grapefruits as a much lighter, dairy free and refined sugar free version of that beloved treat.

Here’s what you need for these simple Honey Brûléed Grapefruits:

  • ruby red grapefruits
  • honey
  • cinnamon

That’s it! They take no more than 15 minutes to prepare from beginning to end, and involve the simple steps of cutting grapefruits, drying them off and sprinkling them with honey and cinnamon.

This easy AIP recipe is bright and light and a great side for brunch, especially when served with some dairy-free yogurt and/or AIP-compliant granola. So beautiful, yet simple, they’re sure to impress.

Description

Delicious ruby red grapefruits broiled with honey and cinnamon. Light and bright, a great side for brunch, especially when served with some dairy-free yogurt.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ruby red grapefruits
  • 4 tsp honey
  • 2 tsp cinnamon 

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to Broil.
  2. Trim 1/4–1/2″ of peel from bottom of each grapefruit half to make the halves flat and help them from wiggling back and forth. 
  3. Place the grapefruit halves face-down on paper towel for a couple minutes to absorb excess moisture.
  4. Next, place the grapefruit halves in a baking dish face up. Drizzle each with 2 tsps of honey and 1 tsp cinnamon.
  5. Broil for 7-8 minutes. 
  6. Remove and let cool a few minutes before serving on their own or with dairy-free yogurt.
