Walnut Free Gluten Free Apple Pear Fruit Salad
Crisp apple slices and tender, juicy pears come together in a light, refreshing salad that feels just as at home on a brunch spread as it does alongside a weeknight dinner. The dressing is a simple whisked blend of fresh lemon juice, honey, and a pinch of cinnamon — just enough warmth to make the fruit sing without overpowering it. A scatter of fresh mint at the end adds a bright, herby finish that takes the whole bowl up a notch. Because the ingredient list is so clean and straightforward, there's zero guesswork about hidden add-ins or cross-contact from nuts — every component is right there in plain sight. It's the kind of recipe that looks impressive but comes together in minutes with nothing more than a knife, a bowl, and a whisk. Whether you're feeding a crowd or just treating yourself, this is a fuss-free, feel-good dish that delivers big on flavor with minimal effort.
