Peach Butter Fruit Salad Sauce

This no-cook Peach Butter Fruit Salad Sauce comes together in minutes and adds a bright, Southern-inspired finish to any bowl of fresh fruit. Lightly sweet, gently tangy, and easy to customize, it’s perfect for brunches, potlucks, or an everyday upgrade to fruit salad.

Yield: About ¾ cup sauce (enough for 6–8 cups of fruit)
Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients

• ½ cup jarred Sweet Home Peach Butter
• 1–3 tablespoons water or orange juice, to desired consistency
• 1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice (for a bright, tart contrast)

Optional:

• Dash of cinnamon
• Finely chopped fresh mint

Instructions

1. In a small bowl or Mason jar, combine the Sweet Home Peach Butter, 1 tablespoon of water or orange juice, and the lemon or lime juice.
2. Whisk vigorously (or seal and shake the jar) until smooth and fully combined.
3. Adjust the consistency by adding additional water or juice, one tablespoon at a time, until the sauce reaches a pourable or light dressing consistency.
4. Taste and stir in cinnamon or fresh mint, if using.

To Assemble Your Fruit Salad

Prep the Fruit: Wash and dry all fresh fruit thoroughly. Berries, sliced bananas, grapes, and sliced peaches pair especially well with this sauce.

Dress the Salad: Drizzle the peach butter sauce over the fruit in a large bowl and gently toss to coat.

Serve: Enjoy immediately or refrigerate for 1–2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.

Storage

• Store leftover sauce or dressed fruit salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1–2 days.
• Stir gently before serving, as natural separation may occur.
