Directions

Step 1

Prepare all the fruits: peel, seed, and dice the mango, pineapple, papaya, and kiwis. Slice the bananas into thin rounds. Place all the prepared fruits into a large mixing bowl.

To make the coconut cream dressing, take the chilled coconut milk and scoop out the thick cream that has risen to the top (about 1 cup). Add it to a medium bowl.

Whisk the coconut cream together with the Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, lime juice, and lime zest until smooth and well-combined.

Step 4

Pour the coconut cream dressing over the fruit in the mixing bowl. Gently toss the fruit to coat it evenly with the dressing.

Step 5

Sprinkle the chopped mint leaves and shredded coconut over the salad, reserving a small amount for garnish.

Step 6

Transfer the fruit salad to a serving bowl or platter and garnish with additional shredded coconut and fresh mint leaves for a decorative touch.

Step 7
