Raspberry Chipotle Black Bean Dip
Creamy smashed black beans, cream cheese, and raspberry chipotle jam combine for this unique dip that’s sure to please.
This is the last appetizer recipe I’m posting before the Superbowl. I hope I’ve given you guys some ideas for snacks to prepare if you’re throwing or going to a party. Who are you guys hoping will win? As I mentioned the other day, I’m a big Peyton Manning fan, so I’m hoping the Broncos win on Sunday.
After making raspberry chipotle jam, I started searching for ways to use it up. We really enjoyed it slathered on some cheese and crackers, but I had 4 jars of it… After some internet searching, I came across this recipe for Raspberry Chipotle Black Bean Dip. I was intrigued at the flavor combination. I knew I liked all of the main components on their own, but I wasn’t sure exactly how it would come out.
I’m glad I went ahead and made this dip. It’s quite tasty and more unique than the standard buffalo chicken dip. One thing I observed is that the jam on it’s own has a great subtle kick to it. In this dip, you didn’t get the kick as much. It was much more subtle thanks to the creamy beans and the cream cheese. This makes the dip more appetizing to a broad audience, which is always good when taking a snack to a party.
If you don’t have homemade raspberry chipotle jam, you can find raspberry chipotle sauce at most grocery stores.

I think I use my apple corer once a month but the time it saves me is so worth storing it!
The pie looks beyond delicious. I haven’t been feeling apple desserts this year but this is one I could get into.
I am making Thanksgiving dinner for the first time this year and I think this pie is definitely going to make it to my table!
This pie would def be great for Thanksgiving dinner Sarah!
This pie looks incredible! My husband loves apple pie and I am planning on making this for him!
Um seriously-this looks ridiculous! I always think that my moms apple pie is the best but…
I’m not a huge fan of apple pie (I make it for a certain someone I live with), but an apple pie with a crisp-like topping and spiced filling is one I could definitely get behind.
And I seriously want one of theose peeler/corer/slicer things. Every year I go to Freeport and inevitably someone in LL Bean is demo-ing one.
Now that’s a delicious apple pie!I saw your blog from the foodie blog roll and I like what you have here.if you won’t mind I’d love to guide Foodista readers to this post.Just add the foodista widget at the end of this post and it’s all set, Thanks!
Looks delcious! I love my apple peeler/corer/slicer machine. I use it for crisps, apple cakes, applesauce, etc. My husband packs my lunch too…it is nice to be spoiled!
We LOVE apple desserts in our house…I’ve bookmarked this delicious looking pie and will try it soon! : )
Beautiful treat. Look so yummy.
Ok it’s been decided….I’m making this for Thanksgiving! Amazing!!!
What an awesome twist on apple pie! It looks stellar Jen. Bravo!
