Description

Fruit Salsa with Cinnamon Crisps is a refreshing and colorful dish made with a blend of fresh fruits and crispy homemade cinnamon tortilla chips, perfect as a snack, appetizer, or dessert.


Ingredients

  • 10 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
  • Cooking spray
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 Granny Smith apples
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 cup finely diced melon (or kiwi)
  • 1 pound strawberries
  • ½ pound raspberries
  • 4 tablespoons raspberry preserves

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon and sugar; set aside.
  2. Spray both sides of three tortillas with cooking spray and sprinkle each side lightly with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  3. Stack the tortillas and cut into 12 wedges using a pizza cutter. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 8–11 minutes until crisp. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  4. Zest the lemon and set aside. Peel and finely chop the apples, then mix with 2 teaspoons of lemon juice.
  5. Finely chop the strawberries and melon (or kiwi). Combine with chopped apples and raspberries in a large bowl. Gently mix.
  6. Add the lemon zest and raspberry preserves. Stir gently to combine all ingredients.
  7. Let the salsa sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

  • Use lemon juice to prevent apples from browning.
  • Fruit salsa can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for a few hours.
  • Store cinnamon crisps in an airtight container and reheat in the oven to refresh.
  • Try using different fruits or preserves to vary the flavor.
  • Store-bought cinnamon sugar pita chips are a convenient alternative.
