Ingredients
Scale
Fruits
- 2 lbs green grapes
- 4 oranges
- 4 strawberries
- 4 raspberries
Dip
- 8 oz dairy-free vanilla yogurt
Instructions
- Prepare the Oranges: Cut each of the 4 oranges into 8 slices without cutting all the way through the bottom. This technique helps keep the orange slices connected, allowing them to fan open gracefully on the platter.
- Arrange Oranges on Platter: Place the partially sliced oranges around the edge of your serving platter to form a wreath shape.
- Prepare Grapes: Wash the green grapes thoroughly and remove them from their stems. Fill in the spaces between the orange slices with the grapes, which act as greenery in the wreath design and help hold the oranges in place.
- Add Raspberries: Place a single raspberry in the center of each orange to mimic the look of flowers and add a splash of color.
- Add Strawberries: Position the strawberries on top of the grapes, adding to the festive appearance and providing additional flavor contrast.
- Place Yogurt in Center: Spoon the dairy-free vanilla yogurt into the center of the platter. This creamy dip complements the fresh fruit flavors and adds a delightful touch for dipping.
- Serve and Enjoy: Invite guests to dip the fruit pieces into the yogurt and enjoy this healthy, festive treat.
Notes
- This platter is designed to look like a Christmas wreath, with green grapes representing greenery and orange slices with raspberries as flowers.
- Using dairy-free vanilla yogurt keeps the recipe inclusive for those avoiding dairy.
- The arrangement makes the fruit platter visually appealing and perfect for holiday parties or family gatherings.
- Ensure oranges are sliced carefully to avoid separating slices completely, which helps maintain the wreath structure.
