Ingredients
Scale
Fruit
- 1 orange (zested and juiced)
- 16 ounces red seedless grapes
- 12 ounces blackberries
- 2 large sweet apples, cubed into bite-sized pieces
Additional Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
- Prepare the dressing: In a large bowl, combine the zest and juice of one orange. Add the maple syrup and ground cinnamon, then whisk thoroughly until the mixture is well blended.
- Add the fruits and nuts: To the bowl with dressing, add the red seedless grapes, blackberries, and chopped pecans. Cube the sweet apples into bite-sized pieces and add them immediately to the bowl.
- Toss to coat: Gently toss all the ingredients together to ensure the fruit and nuts are evenly coated with the orange-cinnamon syrup. This blends the flavors beautifully.
- Serve or store: Serve the salad immediately for best freshness or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. This allows the flavors to meld further.
Notes
- To prevent apples from browning, toss them quickly in the orange juice mixture before adding other ingredients.
- This salad is best served fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- For a vegan option, ensure your maple syrup is pure and free from additives.
- Feel free to substitute pecans with walnuts or almonds for a different nutty flavor.
