Not overly sweet, this recipe is a grapefruit-lover’s delight. The warm grapefruit pairs well with the cold, honey-sweetened yogurt and adding crunchy granola or nuts makes for a more substantial breakfast or healthy snack. Enjoy this snack I know I do.
INGREDIENTS
2 grapefruit
3 tablespoons raw sugar
1/8 teaspoon grated fresh ginger or ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
pinch of salt or not
1/2 cup Greek yogurt, or non-dairy yogurt
1 tablespoon honey (optional)
1/4 cup granola or dried fruits and nuts, chopped (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the broiler.
Start by laying your grapefruit on its side and slicing it right down the middle. Slice a thin slice off the bottom peel of each half to make sure they don’t wiggle. Place the grapefruit halves face-down on paper towels for about five minutes to absorb excess moisture.
In a small bowl, mix together the raw sugar, ginger and cinnamon and a dash of salt. On a baking sheet, place the grapefruit halves face up. Sprinkle each half with even amounts of the sugar mixture.
Broil for 7 to 10 minutes, until the sugar is melted and slightly caramelized. Let the grapefruit halves cool for at least a few minutes; serve warm or at room temperature with yogurt (swirl in honey if you’d like) and granola, dried fruit and nuts.
