  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Yield: 1 serving

Ingredients

Fruit Dip Ingredients

  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ¾ cup vanilla low-fat or full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla paste
  • Pinch of ground cinnamon

Foods for Dipping

  • Berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • Grapes
  • Other fresh fruit (apple slices, pear slices, melon chunks)
  • Graham crackers
  • Pretzels

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cream cheese: In the bowl of a stand mixer or a medium bowl if using a handheld mixer, place the softened cream cheese. Mix on medium-low speed until it becomes smooth and creamy, which forms the base of your dip.
  2. Add remaining ingredients: Add the vanilla Greek yogurt, pure maple syrup or honey, pure vanilla paste, and a pinch of ground cinnamon to the cream cheese. Mix everything together for about 30 seconds on medium-low speed until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well combined.
  3. Serve with dippers: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and serve immediately with your choice of berries, grapes, sliced fresh fruits, graham crackers, or pretzels for dipping.
  4. Storage: Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Stir the dip again before serving to restore its creamy texture.

Notes

  • You can use either low-fat or full-fat Greek yogurt depending on your preference for richness.
  • Maple syrup and honey can be substituted for sweetness; adjust quantity to taste.
  • Try adding a bit of lemon zest or a dash of nutmeg for a flavor twist.
  • For a dairy-free option, substitute cream cheese and yogurt with plant-based alternatives.
  • This dip pairs well with a wide variety of fresh fruit, crackers, and crunchy snacks.
