Ingredients
  

  • For the Honey-Cinnamon Yogurt Sauce
  • 2 cups (480 g) plain yogurt (Greek style works well for extra thickness)
  • 3 tablespoons (63 g) (2.22 oz) honey
  • ¾ teaspoon (2 g) (0.07 oz) ground cinnamon
  • For the Fruit Salad
  • ½ pint / 1 cup (150g) fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 2 ripe bananas, sliced ½ inch thick
  • ½ pint / 1 cup (150g) fresh blueberries
  • 2 ripe peaches, peeled and sliced ½ inch thick
  • ½ ripe cantaloupe, cut into ½-inch cubes
  • To prevent bananas and peaches from browning, toss them with a teaspoon of lemon juice before adding them to the sauce.
  • For a vegan-friendly version, use a thick plant-based yogurt (like coconut or soy) and swap the honey for maple syrup or agave nectar.
  • Feel free to customize with seasonal fruits! Mango, kiwi, and red grapes are also fantastic additions.

Method
 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the plain yogurt, honey, and ground cinnamon until the sauce is smooth and well combined.
  2. Set aside 6 of the most beautiful strawberry halves to use for garnish later.
  3. Gently add the remaining strawberries, sliced bananas, blueberries, sliced peaches, and cantaloupe cubes to the bowl with the yogurt sauce.
  4. Fold the fruit into the sauce with a spatula until everything is evenly coated. Be gentle to avoid mashing the softer fruits.
  5. Cover the bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. For the best flavor and color, you can chill it for up to 24 hours.
  6. Serve chilled, garnishing each portion with a reserved strawberry half.
  7. Add a delightful crunch by sprinkling toasted granola, chopped pecans, or slivered almonds on top just before serving.
