Apples Medley Salad With Greek Yogurt Cinnamon Dressing

Greek yogurt cinnamon dressing. Lovely healthy dressing for your fruit salads and desserts!

Need a quick dressing for a fruit salad? This Greek Yogurt cinnamon dressing is a delicious, low-fat substitute for whipped cream dressings. I made this particular dressing for my Apples Medley Salad recipe. This dressing is loaded with cinnamon and apple pie flavor and packed with protein rich; non-fat Greek yogurt.

I use Greek yogurt sweetened with honey or maple Syrup as a direct substitute for whipped cream and as a topping for pies and other desserts. Homemade Greek Yogurt is the best for this. You can strain homemade Greek yogurt until it’s very thick and creamy. That reduces the tartness found in store bought yogurt and makes it an excellent dressing. It’s all in how you make it!

Apples Medley Salad with Greek Yogurt Cinnamon Dressing

I spiced this dressing with cinnamon and apple pie spice to complement Apple Medley Salad ingredients. Greek yogurt cinnamon dressing will work wonderfully with any fruit salad that requires a sweet creamy dressing. Adjust the sweetness, spices and consistency to whatever recipe you are using it for.

This topping is also stellar on desserts like apple crisp or blackberry apple crisp! For a green salad, try Creamy Balsamic Salad Dressing which also incorporates Greek yogurt.
