🥣 How to Make Creamy Strawberry Banana Fruit Salad

Step 1: Prepare the Fruit

Wash and dry all fruit thoroughly.

Slice strawberries, bananas, and grapes evenly for the best texture and presentation. Place fruit in a large mixing bowl.

In a small bowl, whisk together:

  • Yogurt

  • Honey or maple syrup

  • Vanilla extract

  • Lemon or orange juice

Whisk until smooth and creamy.

Step 3: Combine

Pour the yogurt dressing over the fruit.

Gently fold with a spatula until all fruit is evenly coated without mashing the bananas.

Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for 15–30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Garnish with optional toppings just before serving.
