Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Start by slicing fresh, ripe pineapple into 1/2-inch thick rings. Remove the tough core from each slice.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until combined. Add egg and milk, stirring until smooth.
  3. In a pot or fryer, heat vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a plate lined with paper towels.
  4. Dip each pineapple ring in the batter, allowing excess to drip off for an even coating.
  5. Carefully place coated pineapple rings into the hot oil. Fry for about 2 minutes per side until golden-brown.
  6. Remove fritters and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Dust with cinnamon and sugar while warm.
  7. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of coconut ice cream for a delightful treat.
