Brunch Recipes

Caramelized Pineapple with Pistachios, Lime and Coconut

By Denise Pare-Watson

This recipe for Caramelized Pineapple with Pistachios, Lime and Coconut is delightfully flavourful and simple to make. I have made many desserts that include the caramelization of apples, however; caramelizing pineapple is something that I have just started to do and I am very pleased with the result. It emphasizes the flavour of the pineapple! I have used coconut oil (also known as coconut butter), which caramelizes faster than butter and provides the added bonus of being dairy free.  This recipe is a wonderful way to use a bit of leftover pineapple (or after making Pineapple Tepache) to make something uniquely delicious for breakfast or brunch or even as a healthy dessert option.

Yield:  2 – 4 servings

CHEF TALK:  Use fresh or frozen pineapple for this recipe.  I had several spears of frozen pineapple to use up.   The technique in this recipe worked very well for the frozen fruit.  You will note that I used coconut butter and coconut sugar in the recipe, but feel free to substitute butter, cane sugar or brown sugar.  I have not tried canned (well drained) pineapple tidbits, however, I think that it would also work well.  If you try canned pineapple tidbits, please let me know about your result.  Alternatively, diced apple can be substituted for the pineapple if you use an apple that keeps its shape when cooked such as Granny Smith or Honey Crisp. This recipe is gluten free and dairy free – for refined sugar free, substitute maple syrup or honey for the coconut sugar.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 ½ tablespoons coconut butter or unsalted butter
  • 2 cups diced pineapple (1/2 inch or smaller dice)
  • 2 tablespoons coconut sugar or cane sugar
  • 1/3 cup old-fashioned (whole) oats
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • 2 tablespoons coconut shavings
  • 2 tablespoons chopped toasted pistachios

METHOD:

  1. Using a large frying pan, melt the coconut butter over medium heat.  Add the diced pineapple, coconut sugar and oats.  Toss the mixture together to coat with the coconut butter.
  2. Stir the mixture until the pineapple and oats turn a golden colour (caramelize).  Drizzle the mixture with lime juice and lime zest and allow the mixture to cool.
  3. To serve, sprinkle with coconut shavings and chopped toasted pistachios.  Caramelized pineapple is delicious served with yogurt for breakfast, or try serving it on top of pannacotta for a delicious gluten-free dessert.

The Ultimate Breakfast Pastry – Bostock

By Denise Pare-Watson

Every one of us has probably had French Toast at one time or another. How would you like to learn about a stepped-up version?  It is actually easier to make; an excellent make-ahead brunch option, and is so delicious that it will become a staple for your holiday breakfast menu. You will love Bostock (pronounced ‘bow-stuck’). It is also known as the “Better Than French Toast” breakfast pastry.  It is offered at the best patisserie shops in Paris so it must be special.

A Frilly Frittata – An Italian Omelette

By Denise Pare-Watson

Do you love eggs?  Do you love them for breakfast, brunch or dinner?  Me, too!  How about a recipe that can be used for all three meals? I think you are going to like this one.  It is a delicious take on a frittata,  which in essence is an Italian omelette. What it really could be described as is an easy way to make an omelette for a crowd.  I have a trick up my sleeve to share with you that makes it easy to do.

I have made this Frittata for Mother’s Day Brunch,  Father’s Day Breakfast, as well as when we have a houseful of guests for the weekend.  You will find that the art of making a frittata is a very good skill to master.
