Pumpkin Whipped Feta Dip is a creamy, tangy, and slightly sweet appetizer that blends feta cheese, pumpkin puree, and warm spices into a fluffy, festive spread—perfect for fall gatherings or a cozy snack.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz block feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 clove garlic, minced or roasted
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Optional toppings: pumpkin seeds, chopped nuts, chili flakes, fresh herbs, extra honey or olive oil

Instructions

  1. In a food processor or blender, combine feta, cream cheese, and pumpkin puree. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
  2. Add olive oil, honey, garlic, lemon juice, and pumpkin spice. Blend again until fully combined and fluffy.
  3. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, or more honey if desired.
  4. Transfer to a serving bowl and smooth the top.
  5. Top with your choice of garnishes—such as a swirl of olive oil, chili flakes, pumpkin seeds, or fresh herbs—before serving.

Notes

  • Block feta yields a much creamier texture than pre-crumbled feta.
  • Adjust the sweetness or spice level depending on your taste.
  • Add a splash of water or olive oil for a looser dip consistency.
  • Great served with pita chips, crackers, crostini, or fresh veggies.
  • Can be made a few hours in advance and chilled to enhance flavor.
