Healthy Holiday Fruit Dip Recipe

This is Jaxon’s first year attending our church’s mothers day out program (Tues/Thurs 8:30am-2pm) which means this is my first chance at school holiday parties!

I always make it a point to chat with his teachers every day and we have developed a fun, little friendship. I know how exhausting it can be to be in a room full of kids all day so I try my hardest to always let them know they are appreciated.

Because of our relationship they always give me first pick at the party sign up sheet! And obviously, I try to pick the healthy foods. For our first holiday party this year I signed up to do the fruit tray.

I wanted to go the “extra mile” and include a dip for the kids and teachers to enjoy with their fruit and it was a huge hit! Plus, it only has 4 ingredients and took about 10 minutes to make!

Healthy Holiday Fruit Dip Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup greek yogurt
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Combine maple syrup and heavy whipping cream in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Whip with a whisk until stiff peaks begin to form (aka: it starts to thicken like whipped cream.. because that’s what it is)
  3. Add greek yogurt and vanilla extract and mix until well combined
  4. Serve with sliced fruit or graham cracker sticks

This can be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for 3 days!

Super easy and a huge crowd pleaser!

Keep snacking 🙂
