Fruit Skewers

I've got to play with this recipe as it was a big hit that I think could even be better.  The fruit is amazing off the grill and the coconut adds crunch and sweetness.  Lovely. 

What you need.
Fruit for skewers sliced into chunks and in a bowl ready to marinade. 

These two were amazing:
  • pineapples
  • nectarines

I think these would be good to:
  • mango
  • banana
  • apricots
  • plums
  • peaches

marinade:
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/4 cup mix of fresh coconut, macadamia nuts and raw cashews chopped coarsely.
Sea salt

To do:
  1. Heat up the coconut oil and melt over medium flame.
  2. Add the nuts and gently brown them for flavor.
  3. Marinade the fruit in the oil for at least 30 minutes
  4. Create colorful skewers with the fruit
  5. Sprinkle with sea salt
  6. Grill to a sear but don't overcook.
Watch out, they explode in your mouth.  Wow.
