Watermelon Sparklers
These watermelon sparklers are a fun, healthy fruit snack made with fresh watermelon, blueberries, and creamy Greek yogurt.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 small seedless watermelon
- 1 pint fresh blueberries
- 1 cup greek yogurt
Instructions
- Slice the watermelon into 1-inch thick rounds. Use a 1-inch star-shaped cookie cutter to cut three stars per skewer.
- Thread three blueberries onto the skewer first. Add a watermelon star above the blueberries. Repeat the pattern until you have three watermelon stars, finishing with a star at the top.
- Arrange the skewers on a platter. Serve with yogurt to dip.
Nutrition
Notes
- Choose a Firm Watermelon: A ripe but firm seedless watermelon works best to keep the star shapes intact without becoming too soft.
- Use a Small Cookie Cutter: A 1-inch star cutter works best for bite-sized, easy-to-eat skewers.
- Chill Before Serving: For extra refreshment, refrigerate the skewers for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Drizzle for Extra Flavor: Add a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of cinnamon to the yogurt for an extra flavor boost.
- Kid-Safe Skewers: If serving to young kids, use blunt-ended skewers or cut the pointed tips off for safety.
- For an Extra Fun Twist: Add a sprinkle of shredded coconut to the yogurt dip for a tropical touch, or drizzle melted dark chocolate over the fruit before serving.
