OTHER VARIATIONS OF THIS BLT DIP
Some other variations of this Easy BLT Dip include:
- Using mayo instead of cream cheese. Personally, I find the cream cheese tastes way better.
- Using pre-made store-bought bacon bits. However, the maple bacon just adds a boost of flavor.
A tip with this recipe is to cook the bacon beforehand to save time. Personally cooking your own bacon, especially maple, adds so much flavour to this dip.

The best way to serve this Easy BLT Dip is with Tostitos chips or on some fresh baguette.
If you wanted to serve this at brunch as an appetizer or even with the brunch buffet, serve it with mini bagels.
