I have a friend who absolutely loves Nutella. I mean, don't many of us?
But she loves it so much that any time I make something with
Nutella, or even mention the word for that matter, she gushes "Oh, I could
bathe in Nutella!"
So, how about a nice big bowl of scrumptious Nutella Greek Yogurt Dip to
bathe in? -- Okay, so maybe not to actually bathe in, but definitely to
dip stuff in. Like strawberries. Or apples. Or animal crackers. Or
bananas. -- Ohhhhhh, most certainly bananas.
When I came across this health(ier) dip recipe, I just knew I had to give it a try. It's easy, it starts with a base of healthy and high-protein Greek yogurt, and ... it's got Nutella. That's a no-brainer, right?
Just three ingredients, super easy to make, and delicious, Nutella Greek Yogurt Dip is just perfect for snacking.
The only part of the Nutella Greek Yogurt Dip recipe I was leery of was the inclusion of ground cinnamon. I was concerned that cinnamon would overpower the taste of the Nutella, and wondered if it was truly necessary to include.
So, I tried the dip both ways -- both with and without cinnamon. Turns out ground cinnamon definitely adds value in the dip. Without it, there was a bit of a harsh, tangy after-taste. Put in cinnamon, and guess what? -- That tanginess goes away.
Made with just three simple ingredients, super easy to make, and
delicious, you bet Nutella Greek Yogurt Dip is just perfect for snacking. Served up surrounded by fresh fruit and animal crackers for a fabulous
go-to snack.

Nutella Greek Yogurt Dip Ingredients:
I takes just 3 ingredient to make this tasty Nutella Greek Yogurt Dip. To
whip up a bowl, you'll need:
- Nutella - The classic chocolate-hazelnut spread that's this dip's tasty namesake a signature flavor creator. Look for Nutella alongside the peanut butters in the grocery store.
- Vanilla Greek yogurt - The creamy base of the dip. Choose vanilla Greek yogurt, rather than plain, to provide the dip's sweetness.
- Ground cinnamon - Rounds out the flavor of the dip, and takes away the "tang" of the Greek yogurt base. Just a small pinch is all you need for this recipe.
(Now in the photos for this post, I topped the Nutella Greek Yogurt Dip
with chopped hazelnuts. This adds a nice look, but is completely optional.
When serving this dip up for snacking, I omit them.)

This sounds great. I would probably try it with a strained kefir yogurt. I bet it would be great served with pancakes or waffles too. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYUM! It absolutely looks delicious but sinful! Haha! I love Nutella but it has a lot of empty calories, but a handful wouldn't be as bad after all. When I was a kid, Nutella was part of my everyday meal: either breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Nutella is everyone's favorite, even those health buffs love Nutella. This will be a nice treat for my kids after school! They will absolutely love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for linking to Make the Scene Monday @ Alderberry Hill. You are being featured later this afternoon!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are having a wonderful weekend, and join me later this evening for Make the Scene Monday #65!
Yum! Making nutella an easily spreadable dip.. Genius!
ReplyDeleteJust licked the spatula and it was delicious. You are right about waiting being the hardest part. Also, I used unflavored yogurt because it was all I had. I was afraid it wouldn't be sweet enough, but it's just right. Thank you!
