Grilled Fruit Kebabs Recipe

So much more than a fruit salad, these kebabs are made with layered fruit, grilled and sweetened with honey and cinnamon. This recipe is perfect for a picnic or potluck.

Ingredients

12 skewers
4 cups assorted cubed fruit
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

Before you begin: Wash your hands.

1. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-hot.
2. Thread fruit cubes evenly onto the skewers, alternating the fruit varieties.
3. In a small bowl, mix together honey, vanilla extract and ground cinnamon.
4. Lightly brush the kebobs with oil and place on the grill. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes per side, basting with the honey mixture until you see grill marks. Remove from grill and brush with any remaining honey. Serve warm.

Cooking Note

• Some of the best fruits for grilling include pineapple, peaches, plums, apricots and watermelon.
• If using wooden skewers, make sure to soak them for at least 2 hours before grilling.
