5 Minute Fluffy Yogurt Fruit Salad is the best creamy fruit salad recipe that you can make without any fresh fruit or fresh berries, but still delivers great fruit flavor and creamy texture.
You can make this as a side dish for family gatherings or serve it as a simple dessert recipe for an easy recipe to make with only a few ingredients and canned fruit.
So, when you need a new recipe for a special occasion give this orange fluff salad a try and you might just have a new family favorite recipe.
Ingredient Notes:
- Cool whip: make sure this is thawed before you need to use it or everything won’t mix together correctly
- Yogurt: orange yogurt works best for this creamy salad recipe but you can also use vanilla yogurt as well
- Marshmallows: use a bag of mini marshmallows from the baking aisle, but not the marshmallow fluff
- Oranges: you will need a can of mandarin oranges drained well
- Pineapple: pineapple tidbits from a can, also drained to remove excess liquid
- Banana: cut the banana into thin slices before you add it to the fruit fluff
How to make 5 Minute Fluffy Yogurt Fruit Salad:
- Place Cool Whip and yogurt into a large bowl. Mix well.
- Add marshmallows and fruit.
- Chill and serve.
Storing and other tips for this 5-cup fruit salad:
Fridge: After serving this fluff salad recipe, place the leftovers in an airtight container and store it in the fridge for 2-3 days.
Type of yogurt to use:
We love to use the orange Chiobani Greek yogurt. I find that the Greek Yogurt makes this salad more fluffy and less runny. You can also use other yogurt flavors too!
