Ingredients
Scale
- 12 green seedless grapes
- 12 medium strawberries, hulled
- 1 large firm banana, sliced into 12 rounds
- 12 mini marshmallows
- 12 wooden skewers or festive toothpicks
Instructions
- Wash the grapes and strawberries thoroughly. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
- Slice the banana into 12 rounds, each about 1/2 inch thick.
- Take one wooden skewer. Thread one banana slice onto the skewer, pushing it down about halfway.
- Next, thread one strawberry onto the skewer pointed-end first, so the wide base sits on the banana slice.
- Add one green grape to the skewer above the strawberry.
- Finally, carefully push one mini marshmallow onto the very tip of the skewer.
- Repeat steps 3-6 with the remaining ingredients to make 12 fruit sticks.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to a few hours. For best results, assemble just before serving.
Notes
To make ahead, prep and store fruit separately. Toss banana slices in a little lemon juice to prevent browning. For a vegan version, use vegan marshmallows. For a sugar-free option, omit the marshmallow or use a small mozzarella pearl instead.
