Salted Peanut Butter Dip - Keto and Easy

Since my 4 Ingredient Cannoli Dip (Low Carb, Keto) was such a huge hit on my blog, I decided to try my hand at yet another dip.  With strawberries, blackberries, cherries, peaches and nectarines in full abundance, I decided to try and create this delicious Salted Peanut Butter Dip that would be the perfect accompaniment to these fruits.

I debated about making a chocolate recipe but decided that it would be too much like a fondue.  Don't get me wrong, I LOVE fondue but with it being over 90 degrees outside, the thought of a pot full of bubbling chocolate even made me, a self-declared chocoholic cringe at the idea.

Opening up every cupboard and pantry door (this is honestly how I get my inspiration!), my eyes fell on a huge jar of peanut butter.

THAT'S IT!!!! SALTED PEANUT BUTTER DIP!

Since my 4 Ingredient Cannoli Dip (Low Carb, Keto) was so easy to make, I decided to follow that recipe and simply add some peanut butter to the mixture.

With a little tweaking here and there, I managed to create the perfect summer fruit dip that is not only easy to make but will be fun to enjoy with your whole family!

How to make Salted Peanut Butter Dip

Step 1:  Prepare the ricotta

• Drain your ricotta using a nut bag or some cheesecloth. For detailed instructions and photos, follow my Cannoli Dip recipe but do not add the chocolate chips.

Step 2:  Add the peanut butter

• Take 6 oz of peanut butter (about ¾ cup) and add it to the ricotta and process until fully incorporated.
• Since peanut butter varies in terms of their level of saltiness and sweetness, feel free to taste the dip and add any additional sweetener or salt.
• Place the dip in the fridge until ready to serve.

Step 3:  Cut up the fruit

• Chop a variety of fruit such as nectarines, strawberries, peaches, pears, apples and bananas.  Serve alongside the dip.
