Sweetheart Fruit Skewers Yogurt (Printable Version)

Vibrant fruit hearts with a smooth honey yogurt dip, perfect for celebrations or light treats.

# What You'll Need:

→ Fresh Fruits

01 - 1 cup strawberries, hulled
02 - 1 cup cantaloupe, peeled and sliced
03 - 1 cup watermelon, peeled and sliced
04 - 1 cup pineapple, peeled and sliced
05 - 1 cup green grapes
06 - 1 cup blueberries

→ Yogurt Dip

07 - 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
08 - 2 tbsp honey
09 - 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
10 - 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

# Method:

01 - Slice strawberries, cantaloupe, watermelon, and pineapple into 1/2-inch thick slabs. Press a small heart-shaped cookie cutter into each slab to create uniform heart shapes. Reserve any fruit scraps for snacking or smoothies.
02 - Thread the prepared fruit hearts, whole grapes, and blueberries onto wooden skewers in an alternating colorful pattern. Leave enough space at the bottom for easy handling. Press fruit gently to secure without crushing.
03 - Whisk together Greek yogurt, honey, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until completely smooth and well combined. Taste and adjust sweetness if desired.
04 - Arrange the completed fruit skewers on a serving platter. Place the yogurt dip in a small bowl alongside the skewers. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

# Chef's Tips:

01 -
  • The combination of sweet ripe fruit and tangy yogurt dip hits that perfect balance between indulgent and refreshing
  • Kids and adults both gravitate toward these colorful skewers like magnets, making them universally loved
02 -
  • Heart-shaped cutters under two inches wide work best for fruit, as larger hearts tend to break when you try to thread them onto skewers
  • Soak wooden skewers in water for ten minutes beforehand if you plan to grill or toast the fruit, though these are typically served fresh
03 -
  • Pat cut fruit gently with paper towels before threading to prevent the skewers from becoming slippery with excess juice
  • The dip consistency should be thick enough to coat a spoon—if yours seems runny, strain it through cheesecloth for thirty minutes
