Hazelnut Free Stone Fruit Salad with Honey & Fresh Mint

Summer stone fruit at its peak deserves nothing more than a light, fragrant dressing, and that's exactly what this salad delivers. Juicy peaches and nectarines are paired with sweet halved cherries, then tossed in a honey-lemon vinaigrette brightened with apple cider vinegar, lemon zest, and a whisper of ground ginger. Torn fresh mint woven through the fruit adds an herbal lift that makes every bite feel alive, and an optional scatter of basil at the end takes it somewhere genuinely special. The dressing comes together in one small bowl with a quick whisk, and a short rest at room temperature lets the fruit release its natural juices and meld with the honey glaze into something almost syrupy. For anyone navigating tree-nut allergies, fruit salads can be a sneaky minefield when recipes call for candied nut toppings or nut-based dressings — this one keeps things beautifully clean with nothing but fruit, fresh herbs, and pantry staples. It works as a stunning brunch side, a light dessert, or an afternoon snack that feels a little indulgent without any effort.
