Baked Grapefruit Halves

The Boothby Inn LLC Website

Ingredients

3 red grapefruits

1 large orange

1 medium banana

1/3 cup orange- or lemon-flavored or regular pitted dried plums (prunes), coarsely snipped

2 Tablespoons orange liqueur (optional)

1 Tablespoon margarine or butter, cut in small pieces

2 Tablespoons brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Halve each grapefruit; cut a very thin slice from bottom of each half so grapefruit will sit flat. Use a grapefruit knife or other small knife to cut around the outer edge to loosen fruit from the shell. Cut between each segment to loosen it from membrane.

In a bowl, combine orange sections, banana slices, prunes and, if using, liqueur. Mound the orange mixture atop the grapefruit haves. Dot each half with margarine or butter. Combine brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over fruit mixture. Place in a 3-quart rectangular baking dish. Bake uncovered for 12 minutes or until grapefruit is warm and topping is hot.
