Published on June 21, 2024 Fruit Salsa with Cinnamon Tortilla Chips- The perfect summer appetizer, snack, or even dessert! Everyone at the table loves this colorful and sweet version of chips and salsa. It’s a delicious and sweet summertime take on traditional chips and salsa. You can serve as an appetizer, snack, or even dessert. It’s the perfect recipe for sharing with family and friends. I love taking this sweet and colorful salsa to parties and potlucks. It’s always a crowd pleaser. The salsa is simple to make–the most time-consuming part is just cutting up the fruit, but it doesn’t take that long and the end result is WORTH IT! Fresh, gorgeous, and SO delicious! You have to try this salsa recipe, especially during the summer months when lots of fruits are in season.
Fruit Salsa Ingredients
You can really include any of your favorite fruits in this salsa, but my personal favorite mix includes the following. All of the flavors are so good together. Make sure you dice up the fruit into small pieces so it is easy to dip!
Strawberries-I always check the bottom of strawberry containers to make sure the berries are still firm and bright, not mushy or molding since that can happen so fast with strawberries! Blackberries-the darker the better with blackberries–skip any containers with green or white patches! Nectarines or Peaches-Both fruits work well in this recipe. If you are using peaches, peel them first. I usually don’t peel nectarines because the skin doesn’t bug me, but you can. Kiwi-I suggest buying kiwis that are slightly soft and give a little bit when squeezed. Firm kiwis aren’t quite ready to be eaten! Peel the kiwi before dicing. Lime Juice-fresh lime juice is best! Honey-I add this at the end and only if I feel like the salsa needs a little extra sweetness. Depending on the ripeness of your fruit you could skip it altogether!
How to Make Fruit Salsa
To make the fruit salsa, in a medium bowl, combine the strawberries, blackberries, nectarines or peaches, and kiwi. Add the lime juice and gently stir to combine. Taste and sweeten with honey, if desired. Serve with cinnamon tortilla chips.
How to Make Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Chips
The cinnamon sugar tortilla chips are a MUST! They are kind of the best part about the fruit salsa..ha! They’re really simple to make at home, too!
Combine cinnamon sugar in a small bowl. Melt butter in another bowl. Brush flour tortillas with a thin layer of melted butter, then generously sprinkle cinnamon sugar on top. You want them to be well coated, no holding back on the cinnamon and sugar:)
Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut each tortilla into triangles. I usually get 8 triangles out of each tortilla.
Place tortilla triangles evenly on the baking sheet, making sure they don’t overlap. You’ll have to do them in batches since they won’t all fit at once!
Bake for 8-12 minutes. Keep a close eye on the chips while they bake. Once they start to brown a bit they’re done quickly, and they’re easy to burn! Remove from the oven and cool completely, then place in a bowl.
If you don’t want to make your own cinnamon sugar tortilla chips, you can use Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips, they are good too, but I prefer the homemade chips. They are the BEST!
How to Store
Store fruit salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The tortilla chips can be stored in a Ziploc bag or airtight container on the counter for up to 5 days. I doubt they will last that long because when you start dipping it is SO hard to stop:)
