Description

A vibrant fruit salsa with crispy cinnamon chips, perfect as a fun and healthy dessert or side for kids’ lunches.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups chopped strawberries
  • 1 cup chopped pineapple
  • 1 cup chopped kiwi
  • 1/2 cup chopped blueberries
  • 1/4 cup chopped red onion (optional, for a little zing)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 68 large whole wheat tortillas
  • 1/4 cup melted butter or coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon sugar (mix 2 parts sugar to 1 part cinnamon)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the strawberries, pineapple, kiwi, blueberries, and red onion (if using).
  2. Gently stir in the lime juice and honey. Set aside to let the flavors meld while you make the chips.
  3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  4. Cut each tortilla into 8 wedges (like cutting a pizza).
  5. Brush both sides of the tortilla wedges with melted butter or coconut oil.
  6. Arrange the wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  7. Sprinkle generously with cinnamon sugar.
  8. Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown. Watch them closely as they can burn quickly!
  9. Let the cinnamon chips cool slightly before serving.
  10. Serve the fruit salsa with the warm cinnamon chips for dipping.

Notes

  • You can use any combination of your kids’ favorite fruits.
  • If your kids are sensitive to textures, chop the fruit very finely.
  • Make sure the chips are completely cool before storing them in an airtight container. They will stay crispy for a day or two.
  • This salsa is also great served with yogurt or cottage cheese.
