Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium oranges
  • 1 cup strawberries, hulled and chopped
  • 1 cup pineapple, diced
  • 1 cup kiwi, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup grapes, halved
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon citrus juice (lemon or lime)
  • Optional: mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  • Prepare the Oranges:
    • Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the tops off each orange to create a lid. Make sure to cut straight across.
    • Scoop out the insides of the oranges with a spoon, being careful not to puncture the skin. Save the orange segments for the filling.
  • Chop the Fruit:
    • In a mixing bowl, chop the reserved orange segments into small pieces.
    • Add the chopped strawberries, diced pineapple, diced kiwi, and halved grapes to the bowl.
  • Mix the Filling:
    • Drizzle honey (if using) and citrus juice over the fruit mixture.
    • Gently toss the fruits together until evenly coated.
  • Carve Faces:
    • Use a small knife to carve jack-o-lantern faces on the front of each hollowed orange. Get creative with your designs!
  • Fill the Oranges:
    • Spoon the fruit mixture into each hollowed orange, packing it in lightly to prevent spilling.
  • Serve:
    • If desired, replace the tops of the oranges for a charming touch.
    • Arrange the filled oranges on a festive platter and garnish with mint leaves if desired.
  • Enjoy:
    • Serve immediately or refrigerate for a few hours before serving for the best flavor and freshness.
