Ingredients
Here is what you will need to make fruit salsa with homemade chips.
For the fruit salsa:
- 1 lb. fresh strawberries
- 1 pint fresh blueberries
- ½ pint fresh raspberries
- 2 apples (we used honeycrisp)
- ½ cup lemon juice
- 2 Tbsp honey
- ¼ tsp vanilla
Kiwi, mango, and peach would all make terrific additions to the recipe as well. Feel free to play around and make the recipe your own by adding your favorite fruit or simply whatever you have on hand.
For the cinnamon chips:
- 6 flour tortillas
- ½ cup butter
- ½ cup sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
Recipe Tips
- A good chopper makes preparing this recipe quick and easy.
- Looking for a shortcut? You can use store-bought cinnamon pita chips instead of making your own.
- Make your cinnamon chips up to 3 days ahead of time and store in an airtight container until ready to serve.
- For the best color and presentation serve your apple better salsa shortly after being prepared. As it sits the apples will take on a pink tint from the berries. Note: this does not affect the flavor just the color.
- Spoon fresh fruit salsa over ice cream or angel food cake as an extra sweet treat.
