Why we love Greek yogurt fruit dip
- Quick and easy: Simply mix the five ingredients together in a bowl and it’s all ready to go in under five minutes!
- Healthy: Made with Greek yogurt, this dip is a great source of protein and calcium. The freshly squeezed orange juice adds a dose of vitamin C and helps to naturally sweeten up the dip so less added sugar is required. It’s such a great nutritious way to spruce up that fruit!
- Make ahead: This yogurt fruit dip keeps well in the fridge, so you can make up a big batch and grab it for easy snacking throughout the week. It’s perfect to pack in those lunch boxes too!
Ingredient Notes
- Yogurt: Greek yogurt forms the base of this fruit dip. I typically use 0% M.F. plain Greek yogurt, but you can use a higher fat variety if you prefer. A flavoured yogurt such as vanilla would work great too; just be sure to decrease the amount of honey added if it’s already sweetened.
- Orange: We use both the zest and juice of the orange for a nice tangy flavour. Use freshly squeezed orange juice for best results rather than store-bought orange juice. Add more zest if you prefer even more zesty flavour!
- Vanilla extract: To sweeten and flavour the dip. Add more to taste if desired.
- Honey: We use honey to sweeten the dip. Maple syrup can also be used if preferred.
Step by Step Instructions
- Combine all of the ingredients for the dip in a medium bowl.
- Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Serve immediately with your favourite fruit or store in the fridge for later.
Recipe Tips
- I generally use 0% plain Greek yogurt for this dip but you can also use a yogurt with a higher fat percentage if you want the dip to be even thicker and creamier. You can also sub in an Icelandic style yogurt for an even creamier consistency.
- I recommend using freshly squeezed orange juice for the best flavour.
- If storing this dip in the fridge for later, be sure to stir it well before serving to reintegrate the flavours.
Recipe FAQs
You can store this dip in the fridge in a covered bowl or air-tight container for up to one week. Be sure to give it a good stir before serving.
It’s best not to freeze this dip if you can avoid it. When it thaws, the texture can change and become grainy or very watery, though it will still taste good. If you do choose to freeze it, it will keep for up to 2 months. Thaw it in the fridge and stir well before serving.
You can dip pretty much any fruit into this yogurt dip! Cut fresh fruits into bite sized pieces and go at it! Apples, mango, pineapple, strawberries, melon, clementines, pears and grapes all work great.
Greek yogurt has a slight tang to it so a little sweetener can help make it a more tasty and kid (and adult) friendly. I like to use a sweetener like honey or maple syrup to sweeten it up, however, if you’d like to minimize added sugar, you can also use a natural sweetener such as stevia. For a thicker dip, you can use a little powdered sugar if preferred.
Serving Suggestions
This fruit dip is obviously great to serve along with fresh fruit. Serve it as part of a large fruit platter or with cute little individual fruit cups. You can also add nuts, dried fruit, cheeses or chocolate for a larger, more elaborate board.
You can also use it as a topping on pancakes or waffles too!
Recipe Variations
- Switch up the flavour: Use juice and zest of a lemon or lime instead of orange.
- Add some cinnamon: Add a dash of cinnamon to the yogurt mixture. It tastes especially good with apple slices!
- Make it dairy-free: Use a plant-based yogurt such as almond, coconut or soy yogurt instead of Greek yogurt.
- To make it vegan: Use a plant-based yogurt and maple syrup.
- Sweetener: Use maple syrup, coconut sugar, or monk fruit sweetener instead of honey.
