The Best 5-Minute Peanut Butter Apple Dip
This recipe is incredibly simple and versatile. It's the perfect after-school snack for kids, a healthy-ish appetizer for a party, or a quick treat to satisfy a sweet craving.

Yields: About 1 ½ cups
Prep time: 5 minutes

Ingredients
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt (or cream cheese, softened)
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar (or maple syrup/honey)
  • 2-4 tbsp milk (or milk of choice), to achieve desired consistency
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • A tiny pinch of salt (optiona
  • l, but it enhances the flavor)

Instructions
Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, add the creamy peanut butter, Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and the pinch of salt.
Whisk Until Smooth: Using a whisk or an electric hand mixer, beat the ingredients together until the dip is completely smooth and creamy. If the dip is too thick for your liking, add milk one tablespoon at a time, whisking after each addition, until it reaches your desired consistency.
Taste and Adjust: Give the dip a quick taste. If you prefer it sweeter, add a little more powdered sugar or maple syrup.
Serve: Serve immediately with your favorite dippers, or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to serve. The dip will firm up slightly in the fridge.

Serving Suggestions
This dip is amazing with more than just apples!

Fruits: Sliced apples (Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, Fuji), pears, bananas, strawberries, or green grapes.
Salty Dippers: Pretzels, pretzel crisps, or potato chips.
Sweet Dippers: Graham crackers, animal crackers, vanilla wafers, or Nilla Wafers.

Tips & Variations
For a Richer Dip: Use softened cream cheese instead of Greek yogurt for a thicker, more decadent dip.
For a "Fluffernutter" Style Dip: Replace the Greek yogurt with ½ cup of marshmallow creme (Fluff). It will be incredibly sweet and fluffy!
Nut-Free Version: Use a sunflower seed butter in place of the peanut butter for a school-safe alternative.
Add Some Crunch: Stir in ¼ cup of mini chocolate chips, toffee bits, or chopped peanuts for extra texture and flavor.
Spice it Up: Add ¼ teaspoon of cinnamon or a pinch of nutmeg for a warm, cozy flavor that's perfect with fall apples.
Make it Vegan: Use a plant-based yogurt (like coconut or almond-based), maple syrup instead of honey, and a plant-based milk.
Healthier Version: Use an all-natural peanut butter (no added sugar), plain Greek yogurt, and sweeten with a couple of tablespoons of maple syrup or a mashed banana.
Enjoy your delicious and easy dip
