I love starting my day with something bright, fresh, and full of flavor, and my Breakfast Fruit Salad is exactly that! It’s sweet, healthy, and perfect for those busy mornings. With only a handful of ingredients and under 15 minutes to prepare, it’s my favorite choice for a brunch side, a healthy snack, or a light and refreshing dessert.

- 1 tsp honey

Notes
- To make the best Breakfast Fruit Salad I let it rest in the fridge for at least an hour before serving. I know it’s tempting to dive right in as soon as you mix everything together, I’ve been guilty of that myself! But trust me, giving it that extra time allows the natural sweetness of the fruit to shine and lets the flavors blend beautifully with the honey-orange dressing. Plus, it chills to the perfect refreshing temperature, making it even more irresistible. It’s a little patience for a whole lot of payoff!
- I always choose the freshest, best quality fruit I can find, especially when it’s in season, it makes such a difference in flavor.
- This recipe is perfect for doubling or tripling when I need a big batch for a party or brunch, it’s always a hit.
- I like to cut the fruit into similar-sized pieces so the dressing coats everything evenly and it’s easier to eat.
- If I’m adding banana, I wait until just before serving to keep it fresh and avoid it turning mushy or brown.
