Seeds Free Gluten Free Apple Pear Fruit Salad
Fresh, crisp apples and ripe pears are the stars here, dressed in a simple honey-lemon vinaigrette with a warm hint of cinnamon. The result is a fruit salad that feels a little more intentional than the usual bowl of mixed fruit — elegant enough for a brunch spread but easy enough to throw together on a weeknight. Seeds can sneak into fruit salads more often than you'd think, whether from pomegranates, kiwi, or berry-heavy mixes, so keeping things to apples, pears, and pantry staples is a genuinely smart move. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of seeds, so there's no picking through or second-guessing. A handful of fresh mint stirred in at the end adds a bright, cooling note that makes the whole bowl feel a little fancy. Serve it right away to keep those slices perfectly crisp and glossy with the dressing.
