Fruit Salsa with Cinnamon Chips
While I love summer and all the delicious produce the season brings , I loathe how my kitchen turns into a mini sauna during the extremely hot months, making me want to spend as little time as possible.
Hence I am always on the lookout for recipes that come together quickly and at the same time make the most of the seasonal produce.
Fresh summer strawberries, kiwis, apples, pineapple, and blueberries are tossed together and served alongside oven-baked crisp cinnamon chips for the perfect bite.
Easy to prepare and packed with bright, vibrant flavors, this is perfect for summer BBQs and potlucks or even as a healthy dessert to satisfy all your sweet cravings any time of the day.
This salsa also acts as a great topping on grilled meat. The tangy flavors of the salsa perfectly complement the smokiness of grilled chicken, pork, or steak.
Can this Fruit Salsa be made in advance?
This salsa is best enjoyed within 2-3 hours of making it. The fruits release juices the longer they sit and can end up being soggy, so I wouldn’t recommend making this in advance.

Notes
- Although the cinnamon chips are at their crispiest right out of the oven, they will keep well in an air-tight container for 3 days at room temperature.
- You can use any other fruits of your choice for the salsa like raspberries, mangoes, peaches, and grapes.
