Optional Additions

  • ¼ cup chopped nuts (almonds or walnuts)
  • ¼ cup dark chocolate, melted for drizzling
  • Honey yogurt dip (1 cup Greek yogurt + 1 tbsp honey + ½ tsp vanilla extract)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Fruits

  1. Wash all fruits thoroughly and pat them dry to remove excess moisture.
  2. Peel, core, and slice fruits as needed, keeping bite-sized pieces for easy serving.
  3. For apples, pears, or bananas, drizzle with lemon juice to prevent browning if using.

2. Arrange the Base Layer

  1. Use a large serving platter or wooden board for an elegant presentation.
  2. Start by placing larger fruits like melon cubes, pineapple, and citrus slices as the base.
  3. Fan out the slices in a circular or linear pattern for a visually appealing layout.

3. Fill in the Gaps

  1. Scatter grapes, berries, and kiwi slices in the empty spaces to add contrast.
  2. Distribute colors evenly to make the platter pop with vibrancy.

4. Add Garnishes and Extras

  1. Sprinkle fresh mint leaves over the platter for a refreshing touch.
  2. Add small bowls of yogurt dip, nuts, or shredded coconut for variety.
  3. For a decadent touch, drizzle melted dark chocolate over selected fruits.

5. Serve & Enjoy

  • Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to 12 hours before serving.
  • Pair with crackers, cheese, or pastries for a complete spread.

Notes

  • Seasonal swaps: Use fresh, in-season fruits for optimal flavor and cost-effectiveness.
  • Storage tips: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Dipping options: Substitute honey yogurt with chocolate sauce, caramel dip, or nut butter.
  • Dietary adaptations: For a vegan-friendly option, replace yogurt dip with coconut yogurt.
