This Vegan Fruit Dip is sweet, rich, and creamy. It will satisfy your sweet tooth.

Pour it into a bowl and place it on a charcuterie board with your favorite fruits and nuts or add it to a fruit salad. You could also use the leftover dip in overnight oats or dairy-free yogurt.

Add in some lemon juice for a tart flavor, or add cacao powder (or cocoa powder) for a chocolate flavor.

It is simple and easy to make and can be made in advance, making it perfect for get-togethers.

This dairy-free fruit dip also makes a great healthy after-school snack. Serve it with graham crackers and apple slices.

💭 Tips

Let cashews soak in water for at least 4 hours to overnight to soften them up.
If you are in a hurry you can soak cashews in boiling water for 15 minutes.
Drain the water and mix the cashews with the rest of the ingredients.
If there are still cashew pieces in the mixture, mix it longer. The softer the cashews, the shorter the mixing time will be to get a smooth consistency.
I've included maple syrup, but it's totally optional. Taste the mixture before adding maple syrup to see if you want to add it.
Refrigerate overnight so that the dip can thicken up.
Don't forget the salt! Salt balances out sweet recipes and makes them taste better.
