02 - In a small separate bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or honey) and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon until thoroughly blended into a uniform mixture.
03 - Transfer the Greek yogurt dip to a clean serving bowl. Drizzle the cinnamon swirl mixture over the surface. Using a toothpick or the tip of a knife, gently swirl through the layers to create a marbled pattern without overmixing.
