Winter Fruit Recipes – #CookBlogShare Week 49

Thank you for sharing!

At any time of the year, you can enjoy recipes using fruit for a wonderful flavor and to add important nutrients, too. Now as winter begins, there are still many options from the fall apple harvest, dried fruits, fresh citrus, and more. Here is a list of which fruits and vegetables are in season in winter from the Produce for Better Health Foundation.

Winter Fruit Recipes

We still have plenty of apples from the fall: gala, honey crisp, Granny Smith – so delicious for Rosh Hashanah and Thanksgiving recipes plus everyday snacking and lunches. Here is another way to enjoy fresh apples, plus dried apricots and raisins or sultanas:

Apricot and Apple Chutney
Apricot and Apple Chutney is a sweet chunky chutney packed full of fresh and dried fruit. It’s easy to make with everyday ingredients and delicious! Great as a gift too!

This rocket and melon salad is light and flavorful, and elegant for a brunch or dinner appetizer. It features cantaloupe and pomegranate, but I think ripe honeydew or canary melon would be terrific in it also.

Rocket and Melon Salad
This rocket and melon starter is perfect for a holiday. It’s extremely quick and easy to make and is gluten free and suitable for vegans. A fresh and light dish.

Panettone is a holiday favorite, so it’s great to see a gluten-free recipe – filled with dried cranberries, blueberries, apricots, glace cherries, and citrus zest with plenty of phytonutrients and fiber (note: this recipe contains egg).

I used the love the chocolate oranges with the sections: such a great taste combo. Check out this cheesecake made with tofu and coconut milk, plus fresh orange zest, orange juice, and even some candied peel for garnish. The nut-based crust will bring out the chocolate flavor even more:

What is #CookBlogShare?

CookBlogShare is a community for food bloggers to share recipes and foodie posts and generally support the food blogging community. The community is centered around the #CookBlogShare linky.

It is a wonderful way for a wide range of food writers, recipe creators, and bloggers to come together and share each other’s recipes.

The linky is now hosted regularly by Sisley from Sew White & Chloe from Feast Glorious Feast.  New members are always welcome to join so make sure you invite your other food blogger friends!

The last linky was hosted by MIdge at Peachick’s Bakery who put together a collection of Recipes to Get Kids in the Kitchen.

Each week the host chooses a selection of recipes that have been submitted during the previous week to showcase. This week I’ve focused on Winter Fruit Recipes.

Required – For each recipe that you link up, choose at least 2 of the other recipes which have been linked that week, go to the blog post and leave a 5* rating & lovely positive comment. You might want to come back later in the week when more posts have been linked up – but don’t forget!

Required – Please also comment on at least one post from that week’s host (me – It’s the third one, vegan stuffed mushrooms) or another recipe on my site. My linked post will be marked “HOST” in the title. (Please don’t leave a comment on this linky post).

Optional – Add the below linky badge to your linked-up post. Copy/paste the html in the below box into your post editor or a custom html block to display the badge:
