Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Total time approx. 1 hour 20 minutes

Wash the apples, peel them if necessary, and remove the core. Cut them into eighths and slice or dice them. Place the diced apples in a bowl and pour over the lime juice. Peel the oranges, divide them into segments, and slice them. Peel the banana, halve them lengthwise, and slice them. Add the oranges and bananas to the apples and mix. Wash the raisins. If they are sulphured, remove the stems if necessary and add them to the fruit salad. Add the flaxseed and maple syrup. Mix everything again and let the fruit salad sit for 1 hour or overnight. Mix again before serving to distribute the juices. Depending on the occasion and taste, you can soak the raisins in a little rum or cognac before mixing them in, or replace the maple syrup with a little acacia or lavender honey. The flaxseed can be replaced with chopped walnuts. Refine the fruit salad with the pulp of a vanilla pod, a pinch of ground ginger or a dash of white wine and/or serve the fruit salad in stemmed glasses, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and garnish with whipped cream or eat a small portion of fruit salad with 5 tablespoons of wholegrain oats as muesli.
