This dip is a magical blend of almond butter with almond milk and a touch of sweetener, coconut cream, cinnamon, and vanilla. Its texture is perfect for dipping or drizzling! It's also great spread on bread with Strawberry-Raspberry Chia Seed Jam or swirled into oatmeal. Be sure to chill a can of full-fat coconut milk for 24 hours prior to making this recipe.

Ingredients:
- 1 small (160 mL) can full-fat coconut milk (you'll need 1/3 cup coconut cream)*
- 3/4 cup (190 mL) natural almond butter (raw or roasted)
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 cup (60 mL) pure maple syrup, or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla bean powder or 1 seeded vanilla bean
- Dash or two of fine sea salt, to taste
Directions:
- Chill the can of coconut milk for 24 hours in the fridge so the cream has time to solidify.
- In a blender, add the almond butter, milk, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt. Blend until smooth.
- Open the chilled can of coconut milk and scoop off the solid white cream. You should have about 1/3 cup. Add this into the blender and blend until smooth. (Discard the leftover coconut water or save for another use.)
- Spoon the dip into a bowl and cover. Chill in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours (it’ll thicken slightly during this time).
- Stir the dip and serve with sliced apples or other fruit for dipping, or use as a spread on toast with Strawberry-Raspberry Chia Seed Jam (so good!).
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 1 week.
- * If you don't have a small can of full-fat coconut milk, feel free to chill a standard-sized can (14-ounce/398 mL). ortion our 1/3 cup of the solid cream, and save the rest for another use.
