# What You Need:
→ Dip Base
01 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (2% or full fat)
02 - 2 tbsp cream cheese, softened
03 - 2 tbsp pure maple syrup or honey
04 - 1 tsp ground cinnamon
05 - 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
06 - Pinch of salt
→ Cinnamon Swirl
07 - 1 tbsp pure maple syrup or honey
08 - 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
→ Fruit Dippers
09 - 1 medium apple, sliced
10 - 1 medium pear, sliced
11 - 1 cup strawberries, halved
12 - 1 cup seedless grapes
13 - 1 banana, sliced
14 - 1 orange, segmented
# How To Cook:
01 - Combine Greek yogurt, cream cheese, maple syrup (or honey), ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk thoroughly until completely smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
02 - In a small separate bowl, mix together 1 tbsp maple syrup (or honey) and 1/2 tsp cinnamon until well combined to create the swirl mixture.
03 - Transfer the yogurt dip to a serving bowl. Drizzle the cinnamon swirl mixture over the top. Using a toothpick or knife tip, gently swirl through the dip to create a marbled pattern.
04 - Arrange apple slices, pear slices, halved strawberries, grapes, banana slices, and orange segments on a serving platter around the dip bowl.
05 - Serve immediately for best results. Alternatively, cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day before serving. Allow to sit at room temperature for 5 minutes if chilled.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- It tastes exactly like the center of a warm cinnamon roll but takes literally ten minutes to throw together
- The protein from the Greek yogurt means you can eat it for breakfast without any guilt whatsoever
02 -
- The longer the cinnamon swirl sits, the more it will fade into the dip, so make your pattern right before serving
- Soggy fruit ruins everything, so slice your apples and pears right before you're ready to eat
03 -
- A tiny splash of almond extract in place of half the vanilla makes this taste incredibly sophisticated
- For parties, set out small bowls of different toppings like coconut flakes or mini chocolate chips for a DIY situation
