Ingredients
For Broiled Grapefruit:
2grapefruits
2tbspbrown sugar
1tspcinnamon
Optional for Topping:
1cupplain nonfat greek yogurt(can use coconut milk yogurt if vegan)
Instructions
Slice grapefruit in half and place on a baking sheet, cut side up. If grapefruit halves do not sit flat, slice a little off the bottom so that it will.
Turn broiler to high.
In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Spoon the mixture onto the grapefruit halves.
Place on a top rack in the oven so that it is relatively close (but not touching) the broiler flame/coils. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, until the sugars have just caramelized on top of each grapefruit.
Top each with plain greek yogurt (optional but I love the taste of it), grab a spoon, and dig in!
