Key Ingredients for this Healthy Fruit Dip

Greek Yogurt

For this greek yogurt fruit dip I used plain greek yogurt. You can substitute it with plain yogurt, non-fat or reduced-fat yogurt, or even vanilla greek yogurt if desired

Cookie butter is a spread made from cookies called speculoos. They’re ground up to make a delicious spread that has a wonderful caramelized flavor with hints of gingerbread. Its consistency is similar to peanut butter, wonderfully creamy. Speculoos cookies originated in Belgium, and like our gingerbread, everyone has their own special recipe, varying the spices, shape, and size. You can find it in the peanut butter aisle at most grocery stores.

Cinnamon

This warm, sweet spice complements the natural sweetness of both the dip and the fruit! Beyond its delightful taste, cinnamon offers several health benefits that make it a fantastic addition to any fruit dip recipe. It’s known for its antioxidant properties, which can help fight inflammation and reduce the risk of disease.
