Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 whole (hulled) Strawberries
- 12 pieces Pineapple chunks
- 2 medium (sliced into 12 rounds) Banana
- 2 medium (peeled and cut into chunks) Kiwi
- 100 grams (chopped) Dark chocolate
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil
- 12 pieces Wooden skewers
- 2 tablespoons Optional toppings (shredded coconut or chopped nuts)
Instructions
Wash and prepare all the fruits: hull the strawberries, slice the bananas, peel and chunk the kiwis, and cut pineapple into bite-sized pieces.
Thread the fruits onto the wooden skewers in a colorful, alternating pattern (e.g., strawberry, pineapple, banana, kiwi). Leave a small space at the bottom of the skewer for handling.
In a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate with the coconut oil until smooth. If microwaving, heat in 15-second intervals, stirring in between, to prevent overheating.
Lay the fruit skewers on a parchment-lined tray or large plate.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the fruit skewers using a spoon or fork. Optionally, sprinkle shredded coconut or chopped nuts on the chocolate before it sets.
Refrigerate the skewers for 5-10 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden.
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy your refreshing and sweet Dessert Fruit Skewers!
