No reviews

A festive and easy-to-make fruit skewer dish perfect for summer parties, featuring strawberries, bananas (or marshmallows), and blueberries.

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 12 skewers 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 pound strawberries, washed and dried
  • 2 bananas, sliced into thick coins (or mini marshmallows)
  • 1 pint blueberries, firm and dry
  • Skewers (bamboo or reusable)
  • Optional: a squeeze of lemon juice for bananas

Instructions

  1. Prep your fruit. Wash everything and dry it well. Hull strawberries and cut large ones in half.
  2. Slice bananas last. If using bananas, slice them into thick coins right before assembling. A quick lemon juice toss helps if needed.
  3. Build the pattern. Slide on strawberry, then banana or marshmallow, then blueberry. Repeat until the skewer is filled but not overcrowded.
  4. Arrange on a platter. Lining them up makes it look intentional. A white tray makes colors pop.
  5. Chill until serving. Cover loosely and refrigerate. Serve cold for the best taste and texture.

Notes

You can prep the skewers up to 4 hours ahead. Keep them cold while traveling by using an ice pack or bringing them in a cooler.
