Print Recipe

A vibrant and refreshing summer fruit salad bursting with sweet stone fruits and berries, perfect for picnics and summer gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4–6 cups sliced stone fruit of choice (cherries, peaches, plums, apricots, nectarines, etc.)
  • 2 cups blueberries
  • 2 cups blackberries
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare your fruit: Wash all the stone fruits and berries thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean towel and slice the stone fruits into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Mix the bowl: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced stone fruits with the blueberries and blackberries. Toss gently to distribute the fruits evenly.
  3. Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Dress the salad: Drizzle the dressing over the fruit and gently toss everything to coat it evenly.
  5. Add fresh herbs: Sprinkle the chopped fresh thyme on top and give it one last gentle toss.
  6. Chill: Let the salad chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

Feel free to mix and match fruits, and add nuts or yogurt for extra flavor and texture. Serve it at summer BBQs or as a healthy dessert.
