A lightly sweet dip with the flavor of a pumpkin pie to liven up your holiday buffet. It’s great for any autumn get-together.
This dip is not your usual ranch or French onion dip that you often find on a holiday table – this dip is creamy and fluffy and great with crackers, fruit, or even chips.
How to Make Pumpkin Pie Dip
To begin, you’ll mix together 16 ounces of solid packed pumpkin, 6 ounces of plain Greek yogurt, and 1/2 cup brown sugar.
Now for the flavoring – add in a teaspoon each of vanilla and cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon each of nutmeg and allspice, 1/4 teaspoon ginger, and 1/8 teaspoon of cloves. Stir those in until combined.
In a mixing bowl, beat 4 ounces of whipping cream with 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar.
Beat the cream until nice and fluffy with stiff peaks.
Fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture.
Chill for an hour or more to let the flavors meld together.
Serve with cut fruit, grapes, crackers, or chips.
This can also be made with sweet potato puree instead of pumpkin. You can also fold in some finely chopped pecans for some texture.
