Preparation

In a bowl, whisk together yogurt, honey, cinnamon and nutmeg (if using). Portion into small bowls or airtight containers. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.

On serving plates or portable containers with lids, arrange fruit pieces around bowl or container of yogurt for dipping.

Tips

If you like to eat frozen fruit, you can use some fresh and some frozen, but don’t let the frozen fruit thaw – it will get too soft and watery for dipping.
