Bakedgrapefruit Recipes

Steps:

• Halve grapefruits and remove pith with a knife.
• Loosen the sections.
• Pour some honey into the centre of each grapefruit. Alternately drizzle the top with honey or maple syrup (thanks Ladypit!).
• Sprinkle with cinnamon.
• Bake at 190C/375F for 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Cut grapefruits in half.
• Carefully remove fruit sections; set aside fruit skins.
• Mix grapefruit sections with grapes and berries in a small bowl.
• You can add a bit of sugar, if you'd like them sweeter. Sometimes I sprinkle them with orange juice, although if you'd like them to be very fancy, you could toss the fruit with a little bit of champagne.
• Refill grapefruit skins with berry mix.
• Beat egg whites and cream of tartar in a cold mixing bowl until stiff peaks form.
• Fold in sugar.
• Cover fruit with merangue.
• Bake at about 500 degrees until just golden brown.
• It's easiest just to keep an eye on them until they look right; it really dos't take that long.

Steps:

• Mix together the sugar, cinnamon and ginger in a small bowl.
• Position an oven rack so that it sits 4 inches below the broiler. Preheat the oven to broil.
• Put the grapefruit cut-side up on a baking sheet. Divide the sugar mixture over the top of each and place under the broiler. Broil until lightly golden brown, about 3 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees F. Remove the ends of the grapefruits to stabilize on the cutting board. Using a sharp knife, remove the skin and bitter pith from the flesh. Over a small bowl, hold grapefruit in 1 hand and carefully remove the segments by sliding the knife between the flesh and the membrane. Toss grapefruit pieces with brown sugar and vanilla and divide among 6 ramekins. In a large bowl, beat egg whites until light and fluffy. Add sugar and beat until meringue is glossy and holds stiff peaks. Top each ramekin with 1/4 cup of ice cream. Cover with meringue and bake until golden brown, about 7 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Halve fruit crosswise and discard any visible seeds. Cut segments free from membranes with a sharp paring knife without removing them.
• Arrange grapefruit halves, cut sides up, on a baking sheet and sprinkle tops evenly with brown sugar.
• Beat egg whites with cream of tartar and a pinch of salt in a bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until whites just hold soft peaks. Gradually add granulated sugar, beating at high speed until meringue is stiff and glossy.
• Generously dollop (or, alternatively, decoratively pipe) meringue onto grapefruit halves and bake in middle of oven until meringue is golden, 7 to 8 minutes. Serve immediately.
• Just Whites (can be substituted for the egg whites, which are not fully cooked, if salmonella is a problem in your area). Available at many supermarkets and New York Cake & Baking Distributors (800-942-2539).

Steps:

• Cut the grapefruit in half and thoroughly loosen all sections with a knife. Dry the cut surface with a paper towel.
• Put the sugar in a 10-inch heavy skillet and place over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons water to the pan and swirl it into the sugar. Continue swirling until the sugar melts and darkens slightly, approximately 3 to 5 minutes; do not let it burn. Immediately add the grapefruit halves, cut sides down, and turn off the heat.
• Move the grapefruit in the pan to coat the surface. Using tongs or two spoons, transfer to serving dishes, cut sides up. Sprinkle with mint and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
• Place grapefruit halves, cut sides up, onto a baking sheet; sprinkle each with about 1 1/2 tablespoon of brown sugar.
• Broil the grapefruit until the brown sugar has melted and begun to bubble, 3 to 8 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes before eating warm.

Steps:

• Heat broiler with rack set 4 inches from heat. With a paring knife, loosen grapefruit segments from membranes and pith.
• Sprinkle grapefruit with sugar and cinnamon. Broil on a baking sheet until tops are slightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Top with yogurt, and garnish with more cinnamon.

Steps:

• Move the rack 4 inches away from the broiler, and turn it on.
• Halve the grapefruits through their equators. Using a paring knife or a grapefruit knife, cut the sections away from the membranes and pith so they are easy to spoon up. Place grapefruit halves, cut-side up, on a baking sheet. Sprinkle each grapefruit half with 1 tablespoon brown sugar, then drizzle with melted butter and a little honey. Sprinkle cinnamon over the tops if you like.
• Broil grapefruit until the sugar melts and caramelizes, 2 to 5 minutes. (Broilers vary a lot so watch carefully to make sure they don't burn.) Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, and serve immediately.
