Grilled Fruit Kabobs with Cinnamon-Maple Yogurt

Yield 6 servings

A sweet, healthy and kid-friendly snack or grilled side. Serve these caramelized bites with a simple cinnamon-maple non-dairy yogurt dip for a treat everyone can enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 12 wooden skewers, soaked
  • 4 cups fruit cut into 1-inch pieces (pineapple, strawberries, peaches, and bananas)
  • 3 Tablespoons maple syrup, divided
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup plain yogurt (or non-dairy yogurt alternative)
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

Heat gas or charcoal grill. Onto each wooden skewer, thread the pineapple, strawberries, peaches, and bananas.

In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of the maple syrup and the olive oil. Brush the maple syrup mixture over the fruit.

Place on grill over medium heat. Cook 2 to 4 minutes, turning every 30 seconds until the fruit softens and grill marks appear.

In a small bowl, stir together the yogurt, remaining 1 tablespoon maple syrup, and cinnamon until well blended. Serve fruit skewers with the yogurt dip.

Notes

Tip: Soaking the skewers in water for at least 20 minutes will prevent the wood from burning while on the grill.
