Instructions

  1. Make the Dressing
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the 1/4 cup raw honey, 2 tsp spice blend, the orange juice, vanilla bean paste, and poppy seeds until well combined. Set aside.
  3. Make the Fruit Salad
  4. Put the diced apples, dried cranberries, pomegranate arils, sliced kiwis, halved figs, diced pears, clementine slices and grapes into a large serving bowl.
  5. Pour the citrus honey dressing over the fruit, then sprinkle in the praline pecans. Toss with salad spoons and serve.

Notes

  • Soak the chopped apples and pears in orange juice or pineapple juice to prevent them from turning brown, then keep the fruit salad in an airtight container.
  • Make the dressing the next day, then toss the dressing and pecans together with the fruit before serving.
  • If you're preparing the fruit salad ahead of time, store the dressing and nuts separately and toss them in right before serving. 
  • Keep the fruit salad in an airtight container overnight at best. The fresh fruit will start to change textures after that.
