How to make healthy fruit dip

One of the biggest problems I have with traditional “fruit dip” recipes is they pack a ton of sugar and not a whole lot of other nutrients we’d want to have in a snack. To make a healthy fruit dip, I focus on making sure the recipe doesn’t have a lot of sugar and has a decent amount of protein or fiber. 

Sprouts offers has some amazing products and an awesome produce selection to find the perfect foods to dip into your peanut butter fruit dip. There’s so many options that are both healthy and kid friendly. One of my favorites that I always stock my pantry with is the chocolate covered rice cakes. And I know I can always count on Sprouts to have the produce I want at prices I can afford too.

  1. Hi! This looks delicious, and a nice change from regular peanut butter. I have a latex allergy with a cross-reactivity to coconut. Have you tried another flour with this, or can you recommend one that might work well? I don’t dabble in other flours enough to know. Thank you!

    1. You have a couple options… 1) just leave it out. The coconut flour thickens it up, so if you don’t mind a runnier consistency then the flavor would still be the same… or 2) sub in almond flour but triple the amount that you would have used for coconut flour.
