Preparation Steps
- Begin by placing your fresh pineapple rings in a large bowl. Pour the dark and coconut rums over the pineapple, ensuring each ring is well submerged. Cover the bowl and let the pineapple soak for at least 1 hour.
- While the pineapple is soaking, set up your breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add all-purpose flour for the initial coating. In the second, whisk together eggs and coconut milk. Finally, place sweetened coconut flakes in the third bowl.
- Take each pineapple ring, dip it into the flour, then into the egg and coconut milk mixture, and finally roll in coconut flakes. Ensure each ring is fully coated.
- Heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) over medium heat. Carefully lower in the coated pineapple rings in batches and fry for about 1 minute on each side until golden brown.
- Prepare the dipping sauce by combining softened cream cheese and powdered sugar in a mixing bowl. Gradually add the reserved rum from the soaking process and mix until smooth.
