Making the best whipped feta dip is really simple, and is an easy process. In a matter of minutes, you can prepare a dish that’s not only pretty but is the perfect combo of flavors.

Whip the Ingredients

I suggest using a food processor for this recipe. If you don’t have one, a blender will work perfectly. Add the feta, honey, garlic, and pistachios to the food processor & blend! You may need to stop the food processor and scrape the sides mid-blend to be sure everything gets evenly blended. Let the food processor do it’s magic until the cheese has a smooth and velvet-like consistency. It’s that’s easy!

Serving Suggestions

Transfer the whipped feta onto a small plate or to a shallow bowl. Drizzle honey in a circle pattern over the feta and use a spoon to spread it. I think this makes it look more beautiful when serving! Garnish the whipped feta cheese dip with pistachios, and a sprinkle of black pepper!

Your whipped feta is now ready to be enjoyed! Whether you’re unwinding after a long day, hosting friends, or indulging in apps on game day—this whipped feta dip is the perfect little taste of Heaven.
