Chef's Note
For an elevated presentation, try using a mix of red and green apples for visual contrast. You can also substitute the walnuts with toasted pepitas or almonds for different flavor profiles. The dip can be made up to 24 hours in advance and stored covered in the refrigerator, which allows the cinnamon flavor to develop even more deeply.

Ingredients
1 cup Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1 pinch pinch of salt
4 medium crisp apples (Honeycrisp, Gala, or Granny Smith)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup chopped toasted walnuts
2 tablespoons dried cranberries
Instructions
- 1
In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until smooth and well incorporated.

Cover the yogurt mixture and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

While the dip is chilling, wash and dry the apples thoroughly.
- 4
Core the apples and slice them into even wedges, about 8-10 slices per apple.
- 5
Place the apple slices in a large bowl and toss gently with lemon juice to prevent browning.

Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes until fragrant, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Set aside to cool.
