This creamy and flavorful dip combines the richness of pumpkin and the sweetness of apples with warm spices and the subtle aroma of vanilla bean. It's perfect for autumn gatherings or any time you crave a seasonal treat.
Ingredients: 1 can 15 oz pumpkin puree. 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and chopped. 1/2 cup brown sugar. 1/4 cup maple syrup. 1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped out. 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg. 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves. 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Instructions: Apple chunks, brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla bean seeds, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt should all be put in a crock pot together with pumpkin puree. Mix things together well. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, stirring every now and then. Once the apples are very soft and the mixture has thickened, take out the vanilla bean and use an immersion blender to blend the mixture until it is smooth. Before you serve the dip, let it cool all the way down. You can eat it with apple slices, graham crackers, or cinnamon pita chips.
