Variations

• Add more orange juice (2-3 tablespoons) for a thinner consistency.
• Omit the banana and just sweeten the yogurt with orange juice.
• Replace the banana with 1/2 – 1 cup mango or strawberries (or peaches during the summer).
• Use lemon or lime juice sweetened with honey instead of orange juice. (1 lemon juiced and 2-3 tablespoons honey).
• Stir in orange or lemon zest.

How To Make Yogurt Fruit Salad Dressing 

1. Blend. Add the yogurt and banana to a food processor or high speed blender and blend until smooth. Add the pure vanilla extract and orange juice and blend well. Add more orange juice if you want a thinner consistency.
2. Chill. Refrigerate for up to an hour before serving. The colder it is the better it tastes!
3. Serve. Drizzle dressing over fruit salad and garnish with toasted nuts, seeds and granola or drizzle over fruit salad and toss to coat the fruit.

The recipe is a versatile one. Feel free to substitute strawberries, raspberries, or another favorite fruit for the banana. My mom always used to splash a little OJ on her fruit salads which gives it an extra delicious fresh taste, so that’s where I got the idea to add orange juice to the mix.  

Serving Suggestions

You can use this Yogurt Fruit Salad Dressing to toss any of these fruit salads with. When serving for breakfast or brunch, you can also garnish with toasted almonds, seeds (sunflower, chia or hemp), granola, dried shredded coconut, and what ever else you like.

I like to pop this creamy yogurt dressing in the freezer for about 5 minutes just before serving. It’s super delicious when it’s ice cold – especially during the warm summer months!
