Ingredients
Lactose-Free Cottage Cheese - Cottage cheese is an excellent source of both protein and calcium. Blending it gives it a texture slightly similar to whipped ricotta.
Honey - Adds just enough sweetness without being overwhelming.
Vanilla Extract - The higher the quality of the vanilla extract, the more pronounced the flavor. It adds a delicate sweetness and a floral note.
Water - Water not only thins out the dip but also helps give the cottage cheese its whipped creamy texture.
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to a food processor or blender.
- Blend until smooth and creamy, about two minutes.
- Use a spatula to push down any thick spots and then blend a little more.
- If your dip seems too thick add a little additional water to thin it out.
Variations
This is a great base for a vanilla fruit dip. You can add additional ingredients to change up the flavor profile a little. Here are some ideas:
- Add fresh fruit such as a handful of strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or a combination.
- Along with the other ingredients add a tablespoon or two of your favorite preserves.
- Swap out the honey for maple syrup.
How to Serve Whipped Cottage Cheese Fruit Dip
- Serve this dip alongside your favorite fruits such as strawberries, pineapple, mandarin oranges, grapes, and apples.
- Instead of a dip, you can also use this as a spread on your favorite gluten-free toast.
Storage
Because this is a dairy-based dip you will want to keep this refrigerated in an airtight container unless it’s being stored. If kept refrigerated it will keep for up to five days.
Equipment
- Food Processor/Blender - This allows you to easily take the curds of the cottage cheese and transform them into a smooth, slightly whipped texture that begs for dipping.
- Measuring cups/Spoons
- Spatula - Makes it easy to scrape down the sides of your food processor so all of the cottage cheese can easily be blended.
Top tips
- Use water to help you achieve your desired texture for this creamy fruit dip. Want it a little thinner? Add more water.
- You can adjust the sweetness to your preference. If you like things a little sweeter, add a little additional honey. Keep in mind though that this is meant to be served with naturally sweet fruit.
