Begin by preparing all the fruits. Rinse the berries and set them aside to dry. Dice the mango and pineapple. Peel and slice the kiwis and bananas.
In a large mixing bowl, combine all the prepared fruits: berries, mango, kiwi, pineapple, and banana.
In a separate small bowl, take the coconut cream and mix it with the maple syrup and vanilla extract. Stir until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.
Add the lemon juice to the coconut cream mixture and stir well. The lemon juice adds a slight tang and helps to balance the sweetness.
Pour the coconut cream mixture over the fruit in the large mixing bowl. Toss gently to ensure all the fruit is evenly coated with the cream.
If desired, sprinkle the chopped fresh mint leaves over the top for added freshness and aroma.
Chill the fruit salad in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes or until ready to serve, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Serve the dairy-free fruit salad chilled, and enjoy as a healthy snack or dessert.
