CHOOSE YOUR SKEWER

Pre-soaked bamboo skewers, or similar

1 Mix together all the ingredients except the pineapple in a small metal bowl and pop it next to the coals to warm up. Once the butter has melted, stir to combine.

2 Thread the pineapple slices onto the skewers to make a lollipop and then grill over hot coals until starting to char and caramelise, turning occasionally.

3 Start brushing the sweet rum butter over the pineapple using a silicone pastry brush to build up a caramelized glaze. The pineapple should have started to soften too. Once charred and softened, remove from the heat and eat just like a lollipop! Who said the kids have all the fun?
