US Customary - Metric

Instructions

MAKE THE SIMPLE CINNAMON MAPLE SAUCE:

  • In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, add the maple syrup, cinnamon, and brown sugar together, whisking until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat.

TO BROIL THE GRAPEFRUIT:

  • Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to the Broil setting. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. OPTION 2: Prepare a 12-inch oven-safe cast iron skillet by greasing it lightly with oil or parchment paper (for greater ease).
  • Place each half of grapefruit unto the prepared baking sheet (sliced side up), making sure that they are side by side. Drizzle olive oil atop each slice.
  • Spoon half of the cinnamon maple sauce atop the grapefruit slices and add them to the oven on broil for 5-10 minutes. NOTE: Be sure to monitor the grapefruit to ensure that they don't brown too quickly or burn.
  • Remove grapefruits from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
  • To serve, add 1-2 Tbsps of yogurt or whipped cream, granola, and strawberries followed by 1 tablespoon of the remaining cinnamon maple sauce. Repeat for each grapefruit served.
  • Bon Appetit!

Notes

  • OIL: If you choose to opt out of Extra virgin olive oil, feel free to substitute with coconut oil, grapeseed oil, or your favorite neutral oil.
  • TOPPINGS: You can always top your broiled grapefruit with your favorite things like: nuts, oats, other fresh fruit, ricotta cheese, sautéed greens (like kale or spinach), etc.
  • GRANOLA: If you're looking for a great store-bought granola, I love using Purely Elizabeth's line of granolas.
