Greek Yogurt Fruit Dip (Print Version)

Creamy Greek yogurt mixed with honey, vanilla, and citrus for a fresh, flavorful dip.

# What You'll Need:

→ Dairy

01 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (whole milk or 2%)

→ Sweeteners & Flavorings

02 - 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
03 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
04 - 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

→ Citrus

05 - 1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
06 - 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

# How to Make It:

01 - In a medium mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon if using, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
02 - Whisk all ingredients until smooth and thoroughly blended.
03 - Transfer to a serving bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld, though serving immediately is possible.
04 - Serve chilled alongside an assortment of fresh fruit such as strawberries, apple slices, grapes, pineapple, or melon.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • Takes literally five minutes and uses ingredients already in your fridge
  • The Greek yogurt makes it protein rich so you actually feel satisfied after snacking
02 -
  • The refrigeration step isn't optional—I once served it immediately and the cinnamon tasted raw and separate
  • Room temperature fruit works better than ice cold fruit for dipping
03 -
  • Grate the lemon zest before juicing the lemon—it's easier to hold onto the fruit
  • Maple syrup works beautifully as a honey substitute and adds a subtle caramel note
