📖 Instructions

Wash all fruits thoroughly and pat them dry. This step prevents sogginess later on!
Cut your fruit into roughly 1-inch chunks. Make sure the sizes are uniform or close to it for even cooking.
If desired, prepare a simple glaze. A quick one I like is 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and a dash of cinnamon. Mix it in the bowl.
Assemble your kabobs by alternating different fruits. Think about color and texture balance – it's as pleasing to the eye as it is to the palate. Don't overfill the skewers.
If using the glaze, toss the assembled kabobs gently to coat them evenly. This adds flavor and prevents sticking.
Preheat your grill to medium heat. Proper preheating helps avoid sticking and produces even grill marks. You could also use a broiler, but grilling is the way to go for that smoky flavor.
Place the kabobs on the grill grates. You'll probably need to cook in batches to avoid overcrowding, making sure there's space for even heat distribution.
Grill for 2-3 minutes per side, or until grill marks appear and the fruit is tender but not mushy. Keep a close eye to prevent burning!
Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them cool slightly before serving. I like to garnish mine with a sprinkle of fresh mint before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing fruit kabobs! They're amazing on their own, but a dollop of vanilla yogurt or ice cream is a great addition too! Mmm!

📝 Notes

Adjust sweetness according to your taste! Some fruits are naturally sweeter.
If you're not grilling, you can skip the glaze completely, although it does add flavor and visual appeal!
For a fun twist, try adding a tiny dab of chocolate to some of the fruit chunks before assembling.
