Ingredients
Scale
Tortillas and Topping
- 4 small flour tortillas
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon sugar
Fruit Filling
- 1 cup strawberries, diced
- 1 kiwi, peeled and chopped
- ½ cup blueberries
- ½ mango, diced
- ½ banana, sliced
Additional Toppings
- ½ cup vanilla Greek yogurt or whipped cream
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- Fresh mint for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare and Toast Tortillas: Lightly brush both sides of each tortilla with melted butter, then sprinkle evenly with cinnamon sugar. Heat a skillet over medium heat and toast each tortilla for about 1–2 minutes per side until warm and slightly crisp.
- Shape Tortillas: While still warm, remove tortillas from the skillet and fold them into taco shapes. Use a taco rack or lean them against each other to hold their shape.
- Mix Fruit Filling: In a medium bowl, gently combine the diced strawberries, chopped kiwi, blueberries, diced mango, and sliced banana to create a fresh fruit mix.
- Assemble Fruit Tacos: Spread a spoonful of vanilla Greek yogurt or whipped cream into the base of each taco shell. Fill the tacos generously with the mixed fruit.
- Add Final Touches: Drizzle honey or maple syrup over the filled tacos and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately for the freshest taste and texture.
Notes
- Substitute fruits based on seasonality; pineapple, grapes, peaches, or oranges work wonderfully.
- For added texture and crunch, sprinkle granola or crushed nuts on top.
- To make a vegan version, use dairy-free yogurt instead of Greek yogurt or whipped cream.
