    Be careful not to over-broil! I accidentally burned mine the first time, but it was perfect the second time around.

  • Darryl Homenick

    This recipe is a game-changer! I never liked grapefruit until I tried this. The broiling makes it so much more palatable.

  • Carlotta Moore

    Simple and delicious! My kids even enjoy eating grapefruit now.

  • Wilhelmine Gutkowski

    I added a dash of cardamom along with the cinnamon, and it was amazing!

  • Leilani King

    Great recipe! I used brown sugar instead of white sugar, and it added a nice molasses flavor.
