This Peanut Butter Apple Dip is so delicious, you’d never know that it’s SO good for you too! It’s packed with protein from peanut butter and Greek yogurt and sweetened with honey! And if you’re a Greek yogurt hater (like me), no worries– you can’t even tell there’s Greek yogurt in there! It’s just thick and creamy and delicious. And HEALTHY!

Y’all.

This dip is a STAPLE in my diet. I literally eat it every single day, and I never feel bad about it! It’s packed with protein and tastes like dessert. A win-win if I ever saw one!

And I don’t mean it’s like kind of good for healthy food. I mean… I could (uh… and do) eat this with a spoon instead of ice cream. I try not to eat it more than twice a day (it’s still got calories, people– no way around that!), but I sure look forward to it!! It’s maybe even more addicting than my mom’s peanut butter granola… which is basically crack. So….

Anyway. Let’s break this recipe down… although it won’t take long, because it’s super simple:

All that goes into this amazing dip is: 1 part Greek yogurt (I like vanilla), 1 part peanut butter (I always use homemade), and 1/2 part honey.

That’s it! And you can either make a big batch to keep in the refrigerator (which is what I do), or you can just make a single serving in a small bowl.

I know that some of you are Greek yogurt haters. And trust me, I get that. I have a really hard time eating the stuff, honestly. But I promise, this doesn’t taste like Greek yogurt. And it’s actually way better (and has WAY more protein) when you use Greek yogurt to make it over just regular yogurt. I’ve tried it both ways, and the creaminess that the Greek yogurt gives this dip just puts it over the top. I promise.

Chobani sent me a big box of their Greek yogurt a while back, and, frankly, I didn’t have high hopes for it. I thought about trying to bake with it, because I’ve heard that it makes your baked goods super moist and yummy. But I actually never got around to baking with it… because for some reason, I decided to whip up this dip instead! And used up ALL of the yogurt in my massive PB Apple Dip consumption.

Chobani is not sponsoring this post. Like… at all. They sent me the samples about a month ago, but I haven’t been in communication with them since then. Having said that– I’ve tried Greek yogurt on several occasions, and was always SUPER grossed out by it. But I have to admit: I think Chobani’s vanilla-flavored yogurt changed my mind. It’s seriously so good.

The reason I mention that is because Chobani vanilla is the only yogurt I’ve used in the making of this dip. I’m kind of scared to try another brand! So keep that in  mind when you’re whipping this up– I think the brand name actually matters here!

You guys are going to LOVE this dip. Seriously.

And then you’ll feel all full of energy and stuff from the protein ๐Ÿ™‚ …right? …I think that’s what protein does?

Wait– who cares? It tastes like dessert ๐Ÿ™‚

Peanut Butter Apple Dip Tips

  • I like to store this dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator. That way, it’s always ready to go when I am!
  • If you’re making a single serving, mix all ingredients together in a small bowl.
  • This dip is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, they will last in the refrigerator for a few days.

Peanut Butter Apple Dip FAQ

Can I use a different brand of Greek yogurt?

Yes, you can use a different brand of Greek yogurt. Just keep in mind that the honey may need to be adjusted accordingly depending on the sweetness of the yogurt.

Can I make this dip using regular yogurt?

You can make this dip using regular yogurt, but I would recommend using Greek yogurt for the best results. Greek yogurt gives the dip a thicker and creamier texture.

I do not recommend freezing this dip, as it will change the consistency.

What is the best way to eat this dip?

This dip is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, they will last in the refrigerator for a few days. You can eat it with apples, carrots, celery, or any other type of crunchy vegetable. Enjoy!

  1. I love that this recipe is so simple, yet so healthy. Seems like the perfect thing to eat at breakfast (or anytime, really) with apple slices, or spread on top of whole grain toast. I can’t wait to try this out for myself!

  2. This sounds super yummy! I do a similar mixture that’s not quite as sweet. I mix approximately 6 ounces of plain Greek yogurt with one tablespoon of almond butter. I dip my apple slices in that for a snack practically every day! It’s highly addicting. I feel deprived on the days I don’t have it, haha!

  3. I was always seriously grossed out by greek yogurt too-I did not like the choibani ..I tried Light and Fit Greek Yogurt Blends and they’re really good!! The vanilla and banana creme are my fav.

  4. If you’re a PB&J kinda gal, I do the same for desserts–except I swirl in jelly with my PB and honey! It tastes JUST LIKE FROZEN YOGURT plus your childhood in a bowl. And it’s totally spoonable as well. Love the mind-meld going on here–cheers!

  5. Sounds good, but not to lose weight. Sugar packed! Only plain yogurt is healthy for you. Sugar turns to fat when processed in your body.

  6. Have you tried making this with peanut butter powder, like PB 2? Wondering what the exchange would be, but would certainly be even higher in protien! ๐Ÿ™‚

    • No, but you could plug in the ingredients to caloriecount.about.com ๐Ÿ™‚ The nutrition will vary, of course, depending on how much of each ingredient you choose to put in. This is the ratio I like, but it could be different for everyone!

  7. So I’m a little late to the party discovering this but oh my am I excited to try this!!! Yummmm! Do you think I could use PB2 instead of regular peanut butter?

  8. this meal is not healthy by no means.. once in a while for protein is fine, but everyday? no way. there are so many calories in all 3 of these ingredients.

    • Health and nutrition is about so much more than calories!!! And portion control is definitely in order for this particular recipe, but that doesn’t make it any less healthy ๐Ÿ™‚

  9. This sounds really yummy! You should try Zoi honey or vanilla
    Yogurt. That’s my go to breakfast food. I bet it would be awesome
    With your peanut butter granola!

  10. I usually have this twice a day too, it is so unbelievably addicting. I also have tried it with bananas and banana chips, which are both delicious.
