Easy Yogurt Fruit Dip
Fruit is nature’s candy, isn’t it? So delicious and packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber. If your child doesn’t like to eat many vegetables, rest assured that they can get pretty much the same nutrients from fruit. So while they are learning to enjoy vegetables through consistent exposure, fruit will help fill in any nutritional gaps. Now if your child doesn’t like fruit, try serving alongside a dip like this yogurt fruit dip that’s made with pantry staple ingredients and no refined sugar! Not only does it add an element of fun, the addition of protein and fat will keep them fuller for longer. Same for you too! This tasty fruit dip is so perfect for a fruit platter or charcuterie board at a baby shower, birthday party, or as a alongside an after-school snack or dessert. And if you are looking for another crowd-pleasing treat, give this no bake mini cheesecake recipe a try!
Ingredients
Yogurt – I prefer plain Greek yogurt over regular yogurt as it results in a thicker dip. Whole fat makes it creamier than low-fat options. You can also use vanilla yogurt. Honey – to sweeten the dip. You can also use pure maple syrup or date syrup. Peanut butter – adds a delicious nuttiness and creaminess. Use sunflower seed butter if there’s an allergy. Vanilla extract
