Treat your ingredients with care...
- Pineapple — Make sure to choose a ripe pineapple for the best flavor. The pineapple should have a sweet aroma and slightly firm texture. If the pineapple is too ripe, it may become too soft when fried.
Tips & Tricks
- For an extra touch of flavor, sprinkle the fried pineapple fritters with powdered sugar before serving.
- Serve the ananasbeignets warm for the best texture and taste.
- If you prefer a lighter version, you can also bake the fritters in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 15 minutes, flipping them halfway through.
Serving advice
Serve the ananasbeignets with a drizzle of warm vanilla sauce on top. They can be enjoyed as a standalone dessert or paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgence.
Presentation advice
Arrange the golden-brown pineapple fritters on a serving platter and drizzle the vanilla sauce over them. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint or a dusting of powdered sugar for an elegant presentation.
