Refreshing Summer Fruit Recipes You Can Totally Get On Board With
Fruit salads, cakes, jams and more
What are we looking forward to most about summer?
Delicious. Fresh. Ripened. Fruit. Yep! We're talking strawberries, peaches, blueberries and more. But, other than eating them fresh, how else can you use them? We've pulled together some of our all-time favourite summer fruit recipes including Fruit Salad (duh), Peach Crumble and even No Churn Blueberry Ice Cream that make the perfect summer dessert for any dinner party you're planning.
So, if you need some summertime inspiration, take a look at what we've got to offer...We're convinced you're going to love them!
Grilled Pineapple
Grilling is by far the best way to eat pineapple. And it's how you can make underripe pineapple taste amazing. Grilling brings out all of the pineapple's juices, and those juices will caramelise (and char) over the hot grates. Trust us, this is a good thing.

Hong Kong Style Mango Pancake
Tiktok is going mad for Hong Kong style mango pancakes and we can see why.

Pineapple Sorbet
When the sun's shining, sorbet is the perfect refreshing treat to cool you down, but it can often be full of sugar and quite expensive. Our sorbet recipe uses just juicy frozen pineapple, lime and honey to make this insanely delish palate cleanser that everyone will love.

Baked Peaches
These baked peaches are roasted low and slow to bring out all their natural sweetness. That means, even if your peaches aren't perfectly ripe, they'll still be super delicious.
