Ingredients

  • Fresh fruits (e.g., pineapple, apple, grapes)
  • Wooden skewers
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Begin by soaking wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  2. While the skewers are soaking, prepare your fruit kebabs by cutting your chosen fruits into bite sized pieces and threading them onto the skewers.
  3. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat.
  4. Grill the skewered fruits for about 2 minutes per side, or until slightly charred and softened. Keep an eye on them to ensure they don't burn.
  5. In a small saucepan, combine honey, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, salt, and lemon juice. Warm the mixture over low heat until well combined and slightly thickened.
  6. Remove the grilled fruit skewers from the heat and immediately drizzle them with the spiced honey sauce. Serve immediately.
