To make this easy yet impressive-looking dessert, peel a whole pineapple, stud it with cloves, and roll it in brown sugar and pepper. Then, just bake it low and slow. Serve it à la mode with our caramel pan sauce and a sprinkle of flaky salt-tiki torches optional. For a royal treat and swoon-worthy presentation, leave the crown on the pineapple.
