Ingredients And Substitutions
These are the main ingredients and substitutions for Pumpkin Whipped Feta. Scroll down to the recipe card for a full list of ingredients and instructions.
Use block feta cheese and not feta cheese crumbles, this will effect the overall texture of the dip.
Plain greek yogurt tastes the best inside this recipe, I love using the one from Greek God’s.
Using a high quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil is best for both flavor and overall texture of this dip.
Use canned pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling.
I love using the honey from Bee Keeper’s Naturals, but feel free to use your favorite high quality honey, just make sure the only ingredient is honey. Otherwise, you may sub agave or maple syrup. Hot honey would also taste really yummy on top of this dip.
Salt and pepper helps balance out all the flavors.
For dipping, use toasted baguette slices, toasted pita bread or fresh veggies.
How To Make
ONE: Start by adding all the ingredients to a food processor or high speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy, roughly 2-3 minutes.
TWO: Pour into a serving bowl and top with toppings, I did more honey, candied pecans and fresh rosemary. Serve and enjoy!
Tips And Tricks
Don’t use feta cheese crumbles, this will alter the texture of the dip. Instead use a feta cheese block.
A food processor will work best for creating the creamy texture of this dip, if you don’t have one, a high speed blender will work as well.
If your dip is too watery, add it to the fridge to chill and firm up for about 30 minutes.
