Peanut butter and apples is one of those classic healthy snacks that everyone loves. But please tell me I’m not the only one who has a hard time getting the peanut butter to spread and stick to the apple slices?!

The solution I’ve found is to mix the peanut butter with Greek yogurt to get that perfect texture to dip apples in. The texture is fluffy, not sticky and hard to spread.

Peanut butter yogurt dip makes a great addition to a snack tray at parties or play dates. Easy to make ahead and easy to store leftovers afterward (if there happen to be any, which isn’t usually the case).

what you need To Make Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Dip

Ingredients

  • Peanut Butter -Regular old creamy peanut butter, not the all natural kind that separates in the jar.
  • Greek Yogurt – I like to use plain Greek yogurt, but honey or vanilla flavored yogurt work as well. You may need to use a bit less syrup though, since the flavored ones are already sweetened. I use the homemade greek yogurt I make in my instant pot.
  • Maple Syrup – Pure maple syrup is the way to go. It adds a wonderful flavor that tastes amazing with the salty peanut butter.
  • Vanilla Extract – I make this using my homemade vanilla extract, but store-bought works just fine too.
