Creamy Whipped Feta Dip (ready in 10 minutes!)

I first shared this easy dip recipe almost 4 years ago, and I still come back to it time and time again. This 10-minute, creamy whipped feta yogurt dip is not only easy to make with super simple ingredients, but it’s absolutely delicious and filled with savory, tangy, fresh & sweet flavors.

All of that in one dip? Yes, you know how I do.

This feta dip feels a little fancy thanks to the hot honey drizzle and fun toppings – no one will know you just blended all the goods up in a food processor! I love that it has a punch of protein but doesn’t have any heaviness that some feta dips have. Enough chat, time to *literally* whip this dip up and serve it on Easter or at your next party.

Dreamy feta dip lightened up to perfection

Many feta dip recipes are made creamy with things like sour cream, mayo, and cream cheese, but this feta dip recipe is lightened up by just blending up feta crumbles with protein-packed yogurt. It still has that lovely, creamy texture, but with a nice tang that makes it extra delicious!

Everything you’ll need to make this whipped feta dip

This feta yogurt dip truly couldn’t be easier to make with such simple ingredients. Here’s everything you’ll need to make it:

• Yogurt: as I mentioned, we’re using nonfat plain yogurt for an excellent boost of protein, creaminess, and tangy flavor. You can also use their whole milk plain yogurt if that’s your preference.
• Feta: you’ll of course need some delicious, salty feta crumbles.
• Olive oil: a little olive oil keeps the dip extra smooth.
• Lemon: you’ll be adding both lemon juice and zest for a lovely brightness.
• Garlic: I mean, come on, gotta have that savory garlic flavor.
• Seasonings: you’ll season the dip with some salt & pepper.
• For topping: we’re drizzling on my homemade hot honey made with honey and red pepper flakes, plus adding extra lemon zest, toasted, sliced almonds, and fresh basil. YES.

Another topping to try

I think pistachios or toasted walnuts would be fabulous in this recipe for a different twist!

Don’t forget to toast those nuts

Yes, you could add regular sliced almonds, but toasting them makes them SO much better. There are two easy ways to do it:

1. Stovetop method: Add sliced almonds to a pan and place over medium heat, stirring occasionally for 2-5 minutes until almonds are slightly golden brown. Remove from heat and allow to cool before adding them to the feta dip.
2. Oven method: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place sliced almonds on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes until fragrant and golden brown, stirring once halfway through baking. Watch carefully so that the nuts do not burn!

How to make homemade hot honey

Making your own hot honey literally takes 1 step – you’ll make this one again and again! Simply add your honey and red pepper flakes to a small bowl and microwave for 15-30 seconds until the honey is slightly bubbling. Give it a stir, and you’re good to go!

Tip: instead of red pepper flakes, you can also use a little of your fav hot sauce.

Whipped feta yogurt dip in 3 simple steps

1. Blend your ingredients. You’ll literally add all of your dip ingredients (minus the toppings) to a food processor and process until the mixture is smooth. Add salt & pepper to taste and process again to mix it up.
2. Make the hot honey. Heat up that hot honey as described above!
3. Top & devour. Add your feta dip to a shallow bowl for dipping, drizzle on the hot honey, and top with the almonds, lemon zest, and basil. Serve with pita chips or veggies and enjoy!

Tip for serving a crowd

The feta yogurt dip serves 4-6 people as written, but feel free to double it to serve more!

Can I make it ahead of time?

Yes! Feel free to make the dip a few days ahead of time and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Be sure to reserve the toppings right before you serve the dip.
