Equipment

  • Medium mixing bowl
  • Spoon or spatula
  • Serving bowl or shallow dish
  • Toothpick or skewer (for swirling)
  • Cutting board and knife

Ingredients
  

Dip Base

  • 2 cups plain full-fat or 2% Greek yogurt Fage, Chobani, or Stonyfield recommended
  • 2 tablespoons caramel sauce store-bought or homemade, plus extra for swirling on top
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup or honey optional, adjust to taste
  • 1 pinch flaky sea salt optional but highly recommended for topping

For Serving

  • 3 large apples Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Granny Smith — cored and sliced thin
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice to toss with apple slices to prevent browning

Instructions
 

Make the Dip Base

  • Spoon the Greek yogurt into a medium mixing bowl. Add the vanilla extract and ground cinnamon, then stir together until smooth and evenly combined.
  • Taste the yogurt mixture. If you'd like it a touch sweeter, stir in 1 tablespoon of maple syrup or honey at this stage. Mix until fully incorporated.

Assemble and Swirl

  • Transfer the yogurt mixture to your serving bowl or a shallow dish, spreading it out with the back of a spoon.
  • Drizzle the caramel sauce over the top of the yogurt in a thin swirl pattern. Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl it into a decorative pattern if desired. Do not fully mix it in — you want the caramel to remain visible as a gorgeous swirl.
  • Finish with a small pinch of flaky sea salt over the caramel for a salted caramel effect (highly recommended).

Prep the Apples and Serve

  • Core and slice the apples into thin wedges. Place them in a bowl and toss gently with the fresh lemon juice to prevent browning.
  • Arrange the apple slices around or alongside the dip on a serving board or platter. Serve immediately, or refrigerate the dip (covered) for up to 24 hours before serving.

Notes

Storage: Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir before serving and add a fresh caramel swirl on top. The apple slices are best freshly cut but will keep in the fridge for a few hours with lemon juice.
Variations: Add 2 oz softened cream cheese blended into the yogurt for an extra-rich party-style dip. Swap apples for pretzel rods, pear slices, graham crackers, or strawberries.
Dairy-Free Option: Use a thick plain coconut milk or cashew-based yogurt and a dairy-free caramel sauce.
Tip: For a frozen yogurt bark version, spread the mixture on a parchment-lined sheet pan, swirl in caramel, and freeze for 2 hours. Break into shards and serve immediately.
