Ingredients

1 cup plain Greek yogurt (preferably full-fat for added creaminess)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust according to your sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional for a warm flavor)

A pinch of salt to enhance sweetness

An assortment of fresh fruits for dipping, such as strawberries, apple slices, banana chunks, and grapes

Optional toppings: a light sprinkle of nutmeg or an extra drizzle of honey for garnish

Instructions

In a medium mixing bowl, add the plain Greek yogurt, followed by honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, ground cinnamon (if using), and a pinch of salt.

Using a whisk, blend all the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps and everything is well combined.

Taste the dip and, if needed, adjust the sweetness by incorporating more honey or maple syrup to suit your palate.

Once the dip has reached your preferred level of sweetness and flavor, cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a lid. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to mingle and intensify.

While the dip is chilling, prepare your fresh fruits by washing them thoroughly and slicing them into bite-sized pieces for easy dipping.

When ready to serve, place the yogurt dip in a small serving bowl and arrange the fresh fruit on a platter beside it for a colorful presentation.

Optional: Just before serving, enhance the dip with a light sprinkle of nutmeg or an additional drizzle of honey on top for a delightful finishing touch.
