Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full fat or 2%)
1/4 cup vanilla protein powder
2 tbsp almond flour
1 tbsp maple syrup (or honey)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
1 tbsp rainbow sprinkles
Optional: 1 tbsp nut butter for richness
Directions
In a medium mixing bowl, I add the Greek yogurt, protein powder, almond flour, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
I stir the mixture well until it becomes smooth and creamy.
Then I gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles.
I transfer the dip to a serving bowl and either enjoy it immediately or chill it for about 30 minutes if I want a firmer texture.
I love serving it with animal crackers, graham crackers, or fresh fruit slices.

Variations
I sometimes add a tablespoon of nut butter (like cashew or almond) for extra richness and creaminess.
For a chocolate twist, I swap vanilla protein for chocolate and stir in mini chocolate chips.
To make it dairy-free, I use a plant-based yogurt and vegan protein powder.
I love customizing the sprinkles for different occasions—pastels for spring, red and green for holidays, or classic rainbow for birthdays.
Storage/Reheating
I store the dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If it thickens too much, I just stir in a splash of milk or yogurt to loosen it up. This dip doesn’t require reheating and is best served chilled or at room temperature.
FAQs
How much protein is in this Dunkaroo dip?
Each 1/2 cup serving contains roughly 15–20 grams of protein, depending on the brand of protein powder I use.
Can I make this ahead of time?
Yes, I often prepare it in advance and store it in the fridge. It actually tastes even better after chilling as the flavors come together.
What can I serve with this dip besides crackers?
I love pairing it with fresh fruit like strawberries, banana slices, or apple wedges. Rice cakes or pretzels also work well.
Is this recipe kid-friendly?
Absolutely. The colorful sprinkles and creamy sweetness make it a favorite for kids, and I feel good knowing it’s a healthier treat.
Can I use flavored yogurt instead of plain?
I prefer plain Greek yogurt to control the sweetness, but if I want a boost of flavor, a low-sugar vanilla or birthday cake yogurt works well too.
