# What You'll Need:
→ Dip Base
01 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (2% or full fat)
02 - 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
03 - 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup or honey
04 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
05 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
06 - Pinch of salt
→ Cinnamon Swirl
07 - 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup or honey
08 - 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
→ Fresh 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 Steps:
01 - In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, cream cheese, maple syrup (or honey), ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk until completely smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps remain.
02 - In a small separate bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or honey) and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon until well combined to create the swirl mixture.
03 - Transfer the Greek yogurt dip to a serving bowl. Drizzle the cinnamon swirl mixture over the top, then use a toothpick or knife to gently swirl it through the dip, creating a marbled pattern.
04 - Artistically arrange the prepared apple slices, pear slices, strawberries, grapes, banana slices, and orange segments on a serving platter around the dip bowl.
05 - Serve immediately for best texture and flavor. Alternatively, cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before serving. Allow to sit at room temperature for 5 minutes if chilled.
# Expert Suggestions:
01 -
- It tastes exactly like licking cinnamon roll batter off a spoon but with protein so zero guilt involved
- The fruit pairing makes it feel fancy enough for brunch but easy enough for Tuesday night Netflix snacking
02 -
- The dip thickens up in the fridge so if you are making this ahead give it a good stir before serving
- Bananas brown pretty quickly after slicing so cut those last minute or toss them in a little lemon juice first
03 -
- Room temperature ingredients blend together so much faster than cold ones
- Taste the dip before swirling because different brands of yogurt vary in tartness
