Ingredients needed

The simple ingredients for this dish are listed fully down in the recipe card but let’s briefly go over the pantry staples needed including a few substitutions you can make as desired!

Greek yogurt – the base of this dip; plain works great but vanilla adds a little extra sweetness. Full-fat gives the creamiest result, but low-fat is entirely fine.
Creamy peanut butter – use a drippy natural peanut butter so it blends in easily; any nut or seed butter works, or leave it out entirely.
Maple syrup – only a splash for sweetness; honey or agave are straightforward swaps.
Cinnamon – optional but adds a warm, fireside flavor that makes this feel a little more special.
Fruit to serve it with – this earns a repeat serving ours with fresh strawberries and apple slices (plus graham crackers are always a hit!).

How to Make It

Simply a reminder that you can find the FULL written recipe down in the recipe card, but I want to quickly go over how to make them with visuals for you:)

ingredients in a bowl to make fruit dip including yogurt, peanut butter, and cinnamon

In a medium bowl, combine all of the ingredients by whipping them together with a spoon. you could also do this using a hand mixer.

Keep whipping until the yogurt is fluffy and all of the ingredients are fully combined. Takes about a minute. You can also do this in a blender or food processor. Serve with your regular fruits and ENJOY!
Store any leftover fruit dip in an airtight container.

Recipe Tips

Use a drippy nut butter (not the stiff, dry kind) – it blends in much more smoothly and gives the dip a better texture.
Whip it with a spoon for a full minute – the yogurt gets noticeably fluffier as you stir.
Taste before you serve! Add more maple syrup or peanut butter to dial it in to your preference.
Make it right in the yogurt container to skip a dish and make storage unfussy.

What about different flavor options?

Chocolate – stir in 2 teaspoons of cocoa powder or a spoonful of melted dark chocolate
Nutella – swap the peanut butter for slightly melted Nutella (DO IT)
Citrus – add a squeeze of lemon or orange juice and a little zest
Vanilla – a teaspoon of vanilla extract makes this taste more dessert-like
Fruit-swirled – mash in a few strawberries or half a banana for a flavored version
Fluffier + sweeter – fold in a dollop of cool whip and reduce the maple syrup
