Peanut Butter Dip with apples is soo good!

My kids love this peanut butter dip, and honestly, I get it because I have a hard time not eating it off the spoon myself. It’s simple, it actually tastes good, and it only takes a few minutes to stir together. It’s just a quick mix of Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey, and a little cinnamon, and somehow that’s enough to make apple slices way more exciting.

I usually put peanut butter dip out as part of an after-school snack tray with red and green apples, but it works just as well when you need something easy to throw together in the middle of the day. It takes a few minutes, it’s got 10g of protein per serving, and keeps the kiddos full until dinner!.

Happy Cooking!

Peanut Butter Dip Ingredients

  • Greek yogurt: Go for a full fat so you get a rich and creamy dip. Plain or vanilla are perfect for this. I would not recommend swapping for regular yogurt as it isn’t quite as thick and the texture won’t be the same.
  • Peanut butter: Creamy peanut butter will blend the best. Go for unsweetened and use the honey to sweeten to taste. You can swap for almond butter, or even sunflower butter for a school safe snack.
  • Honey: Swap for pure maple syrup if you prefer. You may need to add more or less honey based on how sweet you like things.
  • Cinnamon: This is optional, but I like it, so here it is as an ingredient in the peanut butter dip recipe.

Ingredients
  

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey and cinnamon until no lumps remain.
  • Transfer to a smaller serving bowl and serve with apples or any other fruit.

Notes

This recipe makes around ⅓ cup per serving for 4 people.
My Top Tip: Let the Greek yogurt sit out for 10 to 15 minutes first. Cold Greek yogurt can make the dip a little stiff when mixing straight from the fridge, especially when you’re mixing it with peanut butter. Letting it sit out a bit makes the dip easier to stir.
Storage: This dip will keep up to 5 days covered in the fridge.

Recipe Variations

  • Add a jam swirl: Once the dip is combined, swirl in ½ cup of your favorite jam; I like Strawberry Chia Jam myself. You can also make homemade jam with any fruit you’ve got on hand.
  • Sweeten it with banana: Nothing goes together like peanut butter and banana. Try holding off on the honey and mashing in one whole ripe banana instead to sweeten.
  • Add some chocolate. Add about 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder to the Greek yogurt. You might need to add a little extra honey to make up for the bitterness of the cocoa.

Serving Ideas

  • Serve it with fresh fruit like Apple slices, Berries or even quartered bananas.
  • It also works well with crunchy dippers like pretzels, rice cakes or graham crackers.
  • Any leftovers can be mixed into a smoothie like my Banana Date Smoothie or used in my classic Overnight Oats.

  2. Mary says:

    I also do this however instead of using regular peanut butter try using PB2 cuts out the added oil and lower in calories.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Love that! Thanks for sharing, Mary!

  3. Rose says:

    I put a tad bit more honey in it and this tastes like peanut butter pie filling to me. Which is to say amazing!! I ate it with an apple and tomorrow I’ll try it with a pear. Awesome recipe.

  7. Tarah says:

    Hands down…this is THE BEST PB yogurt dip recipe there is. I can’t do dairy, so I used Siggi’s plant based coconut blend, vanilla flavor (1.5 lb, or 24 oz.) larger tub and triple the recipe. Then I divide it up in small containers and have it throughout the week! YUMMMMMM!! Thank you for the recipe!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Love that!! Yay, so glad you like the dip! Thank you, Tarah!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Aww, I love that!! Thank you so much, Haley!

  9. Jen says:

    Amazing! I used nonfat Greek plain yogurt and no sugar added PB, so good and creamy with just enough sweet.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Yay! So glad you liked it!!

  12. Lindy says:

    Could I make this with PB powder instead? Less calories?

    1. Yumna says:

      Yes! That sounds like a great idea.

  13. Emily says:

    Made this and used it to top some waffles, along with sliced strawberries. Absolutely perfect – not too sweet and not too heavy. I’ll do it again for sure.

    1. Yumna says:

      Wow sounds like a great breakfast, thanks for sharing!

  14. Dianne C says:

    For whatever reason, I started craving peanut butter in my old age. I make a 1/2 a batch of this, but I don’t mix in any sweetener. Instead, I put whipped cream on it and eat it for dessert. It has more nutrition than my other desert preferences, so I can indulge more often. It also fills me up whereas normal goodies just make me want to eat more.

    1. Yumna says:

      So happy you found a way to enjoy this as a special dessert!

  15. Pat says:

    Yum ! Delicious!
    Apple season is here !
    Love this dip with apples !

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you! Yes!! It is such a great pairing.

  16. Jamie says:

    My family loves this dip! I double the recipe every time and it is always gone with a few days. What is the serving size for the recipe? I saw that it makes 8 servings, but just wondering how much was in each serving.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Yay! That’s amazing. One serving is roughly 1/3 cup.

  17. KarenC says:

    Perfect for an autumn day! So good and so easy👏🍁🍂🍎🍏

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Yay! So glad to hear it!

  18. Tuesday says:

    The video shows that you put paper in the measuring cup for the yogurt and peanut butter. Why? That seems like a waste of paper. Thanks!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      It was to make it easier to transfer, but you can skip that step too!

  19. Karen says:

    This was really good! I halved the recipe and used low fat Greek yogurt because that’s what I had on hand and also added a touch more of honey. I love peanut butter with apples so this was great to add some extra protein. My 3.5 year old also loved it with his apples! I also like the idea of eating it as a yogurt snack with toppings as another reviewer mentioned.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      I’m so glad you both enjoyed it! Thank you!

  20. Zainab says:

    Yum!! I made half the amount and ate it as a yogurt snack. I added walnuts and chocolate chips on top. What a great snack!!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      That sounds like a great way to add some crunch! Thank you!!

  21. Husna Ansari says:

    I just tried your peanut butter and Greek yogurt dip, it was AMAZING. I practically licked the bowl clean and can’t wait to enjoy it again tomorrow!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      So glad to hear it! Thank you so much!

  22. Rohtak says:

    So so yummy!! Thank you for the recipe!!
