Apple Dip (4 Ingredients!)


You won’t believe this caramel apple dip recipe until you taste it! Stir just 4 ingredients into a glossy peanut butter caramel that’s vegan and gluten-free. It’s so simple and the best healthy snack!

Why we love this recipe

Hello and welcome to our current obsession: this no-cook caramel apple dip recipe! Just 4 ingredients come together into a glossy caramel texture that tastes like peanut butter, but it’s completely no cook and dairy free. It’s like some kind of kitchen sorcery!

Our kids go crazy over this stuff, and it couldn’t be simpler to mix together with ingredients you probably already have on hand. It’s the perfect healthy snack and it’s also perfect as a fall appetizer. As cookbook authors each fall we create some apple recipes with apples we pick at an orchard: this is the #1 favorite of the season!

Ingredient notes for apple dip

This caramel apple dip has just 4 ingredients that stir together into a quick caramel texture—it’s like magic! A standard caramel recipe has heavy cream and sugar that make the sweet, sticky texture. This recipe uses peanut butter (yes!) and maple syrup to mimic this common ingredient, making it a healthier alternative using a natural sweetener. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Creamy peanut butter: We used no sugar added peanut butter. A quality peanut butter makes a nicer tasting apple dip. For peanut allergies, try a high quality creamy almond butter or cashew butter. (Feel free to experiment with sunflower butter for nut free.)
  • Pure maple syrup: For all of our recipes with maple syrup, we prefer using Grade A: Dark Color and Robust Flavor. We find it tastes better than bottles labeled Amber or Golden.
  • Neutral oil: The oil in this recipe makes the glossy texture; we do not recommend leaving it out. We used organic grapeseed oil; you can also substitute melted coconut oil.
  • Vanilla extract: The vanilla brings the classic flavor to the caramel.
  • Salt (optional): Depending on the saltiness of the peanut butter brand you use, you may want to use a pinch of salt. Don’t go overboard, because all you need is a little!

Oil alternatives

While olive oil is a healthier oil, it does bring quite a strong flavor to the caramel (we tested it and liked the flavor better with neutral oil). You can also use melted coconut oil, but keep in mind it does become solid when refrigerated, whereas grapeseed or vegetable oil stay soft.

Ways to serve apple dip

This apple dip is the perfect fall appetizer for a party or great as a healthy snack anytime! It’s kid friendly and adult friendly, and everyone we’ve served it too gobbles it right up. Other than sliced apples, here are a few more ways to serve this healthy caramel dip:

  • Pear slices
  • Fresh strawberries
  • Graham crackers
  • Vanilla cookies or ginger cookies
  • Pretzels
  • With chopped peanuts on top

Storing leftovers

This caramel apple dip stores very well refrigerated. Enjoy it immediately, or refrigerate it for up to 2 weeks.

Frequently asked questions

What kind of apples are best for this caramel apple dip?

Tart apples like Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady work well with this sweet dip as they provide a nice balance of flavors.

Can I make this apple dip ahead of time?

Yes, you can make this dip ahead of time and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. We recommend serving within a few days, but leftovers last up to 2 weeks.

My apple dip is too thick/thin, what can I do?

If the dip is too thin, add a little more peanut butter. If it’s too thick, add a little more maple syrup or even water to thin it out.

Description

You won’t believe this caramel apple dip recipe until you taste it! Stir just four ingredients into a glossy peanut butter caramel that’s vegan and gluten-free. It’s so simple and the best healthy snack!


Ingredients

  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter (no sugar added)
  • ½ cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons neutral oil (like grapeseed or vegetable, or melted coconut oil; see Notes)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt (optional)
  • Sliced apples, for serving (we like Pink Lady or Granny Smith)


Instructions

  1. Mix the peanut butter, maple syrup, oil, vanilla extract, and salt in a small bowl. Enjoy immediately with apple slices, or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

For the oil, a neutral oil is best. While olive oil is a healthier oil, it does bring quite a strong flavor to the caramel (we tested it and liked the flavor better with neutral oil). You can also use melted coconut oil, but keep in mind it does become solid when refrigerated, whereas grapeseed or vegetable oil stay soft.

For the maple syrup, we prefer using Grade A: Dark Color and Robust Flavor. 

For the nut butter, you can substitute a creamy almond butter or cashew butter. You can experiment with sunflower butter for nut-free (we have not tested).
