Chestnut Free Gluten Free Apple Pear Fruit Salad
This bright, refreshing fruit salad is the kind of dish that looks effortless but tastes like you actually tried. Crisp apple slices and tender, juicy pear come together in a simple honey-lemon dressing that's just sweet enough, with a whisper of cinnamon tying everything together. A handful of fresh mint scattered on top adds a cool, herby lift that makes the whole bowl feel a little more special. For anyone navigating tree nut concerns, this recipe is a genuinely worry-free option — every ingredient is straightforward, whole, and easy to verify at the store. There's no hidden dressing, no packaged mix, and no reason to second-guess the label. It comes together in minutes and works beautifully as a light dessert, a brunch side, or a palate-cleanser between heavier dishes. Serve it right away while the fruit is still crisp and the dressing is fresh for the best possible bite.
