Preparing the Fruits

Begin by washing all the fruits thoroughly under running water. Peel the banana and orange, and core the apple. Then, cut the banana, apple, and orange segments into bite-size pieces. Place these cut fruits in a large mixing bowl.

Adding Blackberries

Add the washed blackberries to the bowl containing the cut fruits. Gently mix the fruits together, ensuring that the berries are evenly distributed throughout the salad.

Mixing the Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together approximately 30 grams of yogurt (you can choose plain or sweetened according to your preference) until smooth. If you're looking for a vegan option, you can substitute the yogurt with a dairy-free alternative.

Combining Ingredients

Pour the yogurt dressing over the fruit mixture. Gently toss everything together until the fruits are evenly coated with the dressing. This will ensure that every bite is filled with a delicious combination of fruit and creamy dressing. If you prefer a sweeter salad, you can add a touch of honey or maple syrup to the dressing before mixing.

Serving

Transfer the fruit salad to serving dishes. You can enjoy it immediately or chill it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving. This salad is best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a day.
