Classic Pineapple Crisp is a sweet and tangy dessert made with juicy pineapple chunks and a crunchy topping. To make the crisp, pineapple chunks are mixed with sugar, flour, and spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. The mixture is then topped with a combination of butter, flour, oats, and brown sugar, which creates a crispy and buttery topping when baked.

The dessert is then baked in the oven until the topping is golden brown and the pineapple is soft and bubbly. The result is a warm and comforting dessert that is perfect for any occasion.

Pineapple Crisp can be served on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for added richness and creaminess. It is a perfect dessert for summer barbecues, family gatherings, or just as a sweet treat after dinner.
