This is a festive and protein-packed delight that combines the warmth of gingerbread with the crisp freshness of apples. In a mixing bowl, combine 2/3 cup of nonfat Greek yogurt with a serving of vanilla protein powder. Infuse the rich flavors of gingerbread by adding a teaspoon of molasses and a tablespoon of almond or cashew butter.
Enhance the spiced essence with a quarter teaspoon each of allspice, cinnamon, and ginger. If you prefer, you can use half a teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice as a convenient alternative. Stir the ingredients until well combined, adjusting the consistency with a splash of almond milk if needed, depending on the type of protein used and your desired creaminess.
Serve the Gingerbread Protein Apple Dip with slices of apple, pear, or berries for a delicious and nutritious treat that captures the essence of the holiday season. Enjoy the festive flavors and protein boost with every delightful dip!
