Recipe Ingredients
Greek yogurt – Greek yogurt is the creamiest and dreamiest, but any kind of yogurt will work great in this recipe.
Plain Greek yogurt (or plain regular yogurt) will taste great in the recipe, but if you’d like an extra flavor boost go for honey-flavored yogurt or another yummy variety.
Peanut butter – This is a creamy dip, so creamy peanut butter works best. Replace with almond butter or cashew butter for a flavor twist.
Honey – Use as much honey as you’d like up to 1/4 cup. If you’d like to replace this ingredient with a different sweetener, experiment with agave or maple syrup.
