Fall Pear Fruit Salad

fall pear fruit salad recipe 5

A delicious autumn fruit salad with pears, blackberries, pecans, and a hint of cinnamon!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 46 medium pears
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries
  • 1 pint whipping cream (or Cool Whip)
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup of brown sugar (to taste)
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup white sugar (to taste)
  • 1 TB ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped or whole
  • squeeze of lemon juice, optional

Instructions

  1. Whip your whipping cream in your mixer or with electric beaters.  As it starts to solidify, add the brown sugar and the white sugar.  Use the amount you want to taste.  I used 1/2 cup of brown sugar and 1/2 cup of white sugar for the whole pint.  Continue whipping the cream until peaks form.
  2. Add the ground cinnamon to the cream.  It will look lightly speckled and super delicious!
  3. Chop your pears into bite-size chunks.  It’s okay to leave the peel on.
  4. Roughly chop your pecans if you want
  5. Place chopped pears in a large bowl and squeeze a little bit of lemon juice on the pears, if desired.  This will help them from going brown to quickly.
  6. Then add the whipping cream to the pears and mix gently until all the pears are fully covered in cream.
  7. Add blackberries and pecans and mix gently until combined.
  8. Serve immediately.
