| Brown Sugar Broiled Grapefruit By EatingWell Test Kitchen, EatingWell.com Grapefruit for dessert? Why not! In this broiled grapefruit recipe, grapefruit halves are topped with spiced brown sugar, caramelized under the broiler then topped with a dollop of vanilla-infused whipped cream. Ingredients 2 red or pink grapefruit | |
| 8 teaspoons | packed light brown sugar |
| 1/4 teaspoon | ground cinnamon |
| cardamom, alternative | |
| 2 teaspoons | melted butter |
| 2 tablespoons | heavy cream |
| 2 tablespoons | nonfat or low-fat plain Greek yogurt |
| 1 teaspoon | granulated sugar |
| 1/4 teaspoon | vanilla extract |
Directions
Position oven rack about 3 inches from the heat source; preheat broiler. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
Cut each grapefruit in half, then trim a thin slice off the bottom so it sits level. With a paring knife or grapefruit knife, cut around each segment; remove any seeds. Place the grapefruit halves on the prepared baking sheet. Combine brown sugar and cinnamon (or cardamom) in a small bowl. Brush each grapefruit half with butter, then sprinkle with about 2 teaspoons of the sugar mixture.
Broil the grapefruit, watching carefully and rotating the pan front to back once halfway through, until the tops are bubbling and golden brown, 7 to 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, beat cream in a small bowl until stiff. Beat in yogurt, granulated sugar and vanilla just until combined. Serve each grapefruit topped with a heaping tablespoon of the vanilla cream.
