Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by placing the fresh pineapple rings in a large bowl. Pour dark rum and coconut rum over the pineapple, ensuring they're fully submerged. Let them soak for at least 1 hour at room temperature, then drain and pat dry.
- Set up your breading station with three shallow bowls: flour in the first, a mixture of whisked eggs and coconut milk in the second, and sweetened coconut flakes in the third.
- Coat each pineapple ring by dipping it in flour, then the egg mixture, and finally rolling it in coconut flakes. Repeat for all rings.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry the coated pineapple rings in batches for about 1 minute on each side until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
- Prepare the creamy dipping sauce by softening cream cheese and blending it with powdered sugar. Incorporate a splash of reserved rum for consistency.
- Serve the warm fried pineapple rings on a platter with the creamy dipping sauce.
