Almond Butter Fruit Dip

Almond Butter Fruit Dip Image
Drizzled over a fruit salad or used as a dip for sliced fresh fruit, this quick and easy to prepare dip is tasty and nutritious!
Almonds – Almonds are called the king of nuts because they are high in calcium, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, folic acid, EFA’s, and protein. Loaded with phytonutrients, they are called the anti-cancer nut.
Maple Syrup – This natural sweetener contains manganese, which is essential for energy production and antioxidant defenses. It is also high in zinc, required for good arteries, skin, and the immune system.
Tahini – Tahini is a fine paste of ground sesame seeds. By weight, sesame seeds are higher than liver in iron. They are also high in calcium, magnesium, protein, fibre, other vitamins and minerals, and EFA’s.
Cinnamon – Cinnamon is known as a warming digestive aid and can help to stimulate appetite. It has anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-microbial properties which make it a great anti-cancer food. It also helps to keep blood sugar levels in balance.
