- Servings
- 2 servings
- Course
- Breakfast and Brunch
Ingredients
- 1 large red grapefruit
- 1 ½ - 2 tbsp white sugar (preferable “raw” sugar if you have it)
Instructions
-
Turn your broiler on high.
-
Slice the grapefruit in half and blot heavily with a paper towel to absorb any dripping juice.
-
Sprinkle sugar on both halves and broil for about six minutes, or until sugar begins to caramelize. If you have a small kitchen blow torch, you could alternately use that for best results.
-
Remove caramelized grapefruits from the broiler and let cool slightly before serving.
