Notes
- For extra crunch, try adding chopped nuts like almonds or walnuts on top of the fruit medley.
- Feel free to swap in seasonal fruits—peaches, kiwi, or mango make great additions!
- To save time, prepare the fruit and whip the cream ahead of time. Store them in the fridge until ready to serve.
- If you're making waffles for a crowd, keep them warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven until serving.
