Ingredients

2 tbsp Olive Wood Smoked Olive Oil
2 tbsp Gravenstein Apple White Balsamic
1 tbsp Butter “Taste” Infused Olive Oil (or real butter)
4 slices bacon, chopped into small pieces
1 medium apple, chopped into small chunks
8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Crackers or bread for dipping

Directions

Caramelize the Apples: In a skillet, melt 1 tbsp butter-flavored olive (or real butter) over medium heat. Add chopped apples and sauté for 5 minutes. Then, stir in Gravenstein Apple White Balsamic and cinnamon, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until caramelized.
Cook the Bacon: In a separate skillet, fry chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Mix the Dip: In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese and Olive Wood Smoked Olive Oil until smooth. Fold in caramelized apples and crispy bacon.
Chill & Serve: Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to let the flavours meld. Serve chilled with crackers or crusty bread for dipping. Enjoy!
