How to Make Caramelized Fruit Platter

  1. Prepare the fruit: Peel and thinly slice the oranges. If using canned pineapple, drain well.
  2. Arrange the fruit: On a serving platter, artfully arrange the orange slices and pineapple chunks, slightly overlapping.
  3. Caramelize the sugar: In a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, melt the granulated sugar. Do not stir. Swirl the pan occasionally to encourage even melting.
  4. Create the caramel: Continue cooking until the sugar turns a rich amber color. This takes about 5-7 minutes and requires careful attention.
  5. Drizzle the caramel: Carefully pour the warm caramel over the arranged fruit, letting it drizzle down and coat the slices.
  6. Serve immediately or chill slightly: The caramel will harden slightly as it cools, adding a delightful textural contrast. Serve immediately for a warm caramel or chill for a firmer texture.
