A crowd pleaser, this Thanksgiving Fruit Salad is a lighter addition to your dessert lineup made with fall fruits like apples, pears, oranges, and pomegranate arils. No cooking required and comes together quickly.
0 To make the dressing, mix together maple syrup, orange zest, orange juice, vanilla extract, and cinnamon in a large bowl until combined.
1 Add in the cubed apples and pears to the bowl and give it a quick toss to ensure they are coated with the dressing (aka the acid in the orange juice) to prevent browning.
2 Then add in the grapes, pomegranate arils, oranges, and kiwi to the bowl. Toss to combine.
3 When ready to serve, add the pecans and toss. If using, garnish with fresh mint leaves and serve.
