Pineapple deserts

[SilverLining]

I want to make a desert with pineapple. I have a can of sliced pineapple, so can cut if chunks or crushed is called for.

I do NOT want to do pineapple upside down.

I was thinking of something like a cobbler. But all the pineapple recipes I find on-line ask for self-rising flour, which I do not have and do not want to buy.

If I use a recipe for Apple or peach cobbler, and substitute pineapple (and maybe different spices?) is there any reason it should not work?

I'm thinking, pineapple, cherries (jar), and brown sugar; topped with flour, oats, salt, crumbled with butter.

My recipe asks for cinnamon (with apples) but I don't think cinnamon would work....what about ginger?

If anyone has a tried and successful recipe I'd appreciate it.

Cobbler should work just fine with pineapple.  I think cinnamon would actually be ok, but your idea of ginger sounds much better.

You can also sauté pineapple with butter and brown sugar, for a nice topping for ice cream or pound cake.

One day I would like to try grilled pineapple. But not today.

^^ One of my faves, with a dash of cayenne.

I made the pineapple crumble. I used a can of pineapple rings, which I cut to bite size, and a jar of cherries.

There are no left overs.
