Our wonderful family friend is a whiz in the kitchen and it was always a happy day growing up when she came delivering leftover dinner for the Bailey clan to sample! She originally invented this dip as a copycat version of our favorite bread dip from Grappa on Main Street in Park City. It is so bold and flavorful! It has since become a staple appetizer for family dinners, parties, or any occasion.
What I LOVE about this bread dip:
- It’s Easy! So easy that you just add these 7 ingredients to a food processor and combine. That’s it! No chopping or other prep work required!
- It’s Unique– this bread dip is a stand-out and guests always ask for the recipe!
How to Make Balsamic Bread Dip:
Gather your ingredients:
- Garlic
- Mayonnaise
- Greek Yogurt
- Balsamic vinegar
- Fresh rosemary
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Mix: Add all of the ingredients to a food processor or blender and mix until smooth.
It’s easy to prepare the bread dip in advance (1-2 days is fine!) and I think it tastes even better when the flavors have had a chance to blend.
Serve balsamic bread dip with Quick and Easy, No Knead Bread!

*I originally shared this recipe in August 2010. Updated December 2019.
Wonder if it could be slathered on a loaf of sliced bread then wrapped in foil to heat in oven? Usually make garlic bread, but balsamic dip could be a new great recipe.
Made this today, exactly as written. I love it. The garlic and vinegar leave a little zing on the tongue that makes you want to keep eating. Thank you for sharing!
Just made this for the first time. Delish, will make it again.
I made this and used two clothes of garlic, which was plenty, since there’s only one cup of other ingredients five clothes of garlic would be way too much and too strong, I also used a good balsamic vinegar from Modena
Delicious. Made olive bread to use as my dipper.
