Ingredients
- 1 grapefruit cut in half through the middle of the grapefruit
- 1 tablespoon Mint leaves cut into strips
- 2 tablespoons coconut flakes
Instructions
- Put your oven on broil.
- To make the grapefruit sit flat, cut 1/4 inch off the bottom of each grapefruit half.
- Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Place the grapefruit halves onto the baking sheet and broil for about 5 minutes, or until done to your liking.
- Spread the coconut flakes in one layer in a small oven dish. Place them in the oven for 1-2 minutes until toasted to your liking. Watch them closely, as they toast quickly.
- When the grapefruit and coconut are done, remove them from the oven.
- Place each grapefruit half on a plate and sprinkle on the toasted coconut and mint. Enjoy!
Notes
Since the Broiled Grapefruit is best enjoyed fresh, it’s recommended to serve immediately after preparation. If necessary, store leftover grapefruit in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.
Reheat in the oven under low broil to maintain texture and warmth. Toast coconut flakes fresh for the best flavor, but you can store them separately in a container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
