Snack Attack! - Grapefruit (Updated)

Baked Grapefruit with Brown Sugar

I love the combination of sweetness and acidity in this recipe. This makes a great breakfast or dessert!




How to make it: 
1. Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees
2. Cut a pink grapefruit in half
3. Use a small knife to cut around the segments (so you can scoop them out of the skin later)
4. Sprinkle with brown sugar (you may also add honey over the sugar if you want it sweeter)
5. Bake until the sugar melts and caramelizes
6. CAREFUL! It will be really hot, so let it cool down a fair bit before eating.

Tips:
- Avoid the temptation to broil these. In my experience they just burn really quickly
- Grapefruits can become a little bitter when baked, you may need to add more sugar if it bothers you

ALTERNATIVE: Warm the grapefruit through on your BBQ then add your sweeteners and serve :)



Enjoy!~
