Here’s an easy guide on how to make a pineapple boat:

Instructions

Cut the Pineapple: To cut the pineapple, start by cutting it in half lengthwise. Use a sharp knife, and be cautious not to cut yourself.

Outline the Pineapple Edges: Cut into and around the edge of the pineapple with your knife, stopping about half an inch from the peel. Make sure you don’t cut all the way through the peel, as this will be your bowl.

Remove the Core: Cut out the core of the pineapple and toss it. The core is the hardest part of the heart of the pineapple.

Make Pineapple Cubes: Make horizontal cuts through the rest of the fruit to make rough cubes or wedges without cutting through the peel.

Scoop the Pineapple: Use a spoon to scoop out your pineapple pieces. You can save these pieces for the salsa in the Air-Fryer Salmon Bites in Pineapple Bowl recipe or eat them as a snack.

And that’s all there is to it! Your very own boat made of pineapples. This way is easy and quick and gives your food a tropical flavor.

Tips & Variations

Pick the Right Pineapple: When picking a pineapple, look for one that is heavy for its dimensions and has a sweet, fragrant smell at the base. The leaves should look green and fresh. This will ensure that the pineapple you use in your dish is sweet and ripe.

Serving drinks: You can also use pineapple boats to serve tropical drinks. Just make sure to clean the pineapple well on the inside and take out all the fruit.
