Ingredients

Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter
  • 1/2 cup natural sugar, plus more to sprinkle fruit
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk

Fruit

  • 3 ripe plums, halved, pitted, and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
  • 1 pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
  • 1 cup hulled strawberries

Instructions

  1. Sauce: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the sugar and stir to dissolve. Stir in the peanut butter, then add the pineapple juice and coconut milk, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 minute. Keep warm while you grill the fruit.
  2. Fruit: Thread the plums, pineapple, and strawberries onto skewers in an alternating pattern. Sprinkle with a little sugar and grill them on both sides, just until grill marks start to appear, about 5 minutes.
  3. Arrange the skewered fruit on 4 plates along with small dipping bowls of the warm sauce.
