Step 1: Prepare Pineapple. Start by slicing your fresh pineapple into 1/2-inch thick rings. Ensure the pineapple is ripe for the best sweetness and juiciness. Set aside to dry slightly.

Step 2: Make Batter. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Create a well and add the egg and milk, mixing until smooth.

Step 3: Heat Oil. Pour vegetable oil into a fryer or pot, filling it about 2 inches deep. Heat oil to 375°F (190°C) for perfect frying.

Step 4: Coat Pineapple. Dip each pineapple ring into the batter, ensuring it's thoroughly coated before frying.

Step 5: Fry Fritters. Carefully lower the coated rings into the hot oil, frying for 2 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Step 6: Drain & Dust. Remove fritters from oil and place on paper towels. While warm, sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar mixture.

Step 7: Serve. Serve warm alone or with toppings like coconut ice cream or dark chocolate.
