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!

Jennifer Aldridge says
I just packed my blender away because im moving, could i wisk it together?
Lauren Allen says
Yes, sure–just be sure to finely mince the rosemary and the garlic.
Vicki says
Could I use sour cream rather than the Greek yogurt?
Lauren Allen says
Sure, that would be fine.
Jess Hopkins says
How was it with sour cream? Grocery store shelves are scarce right now and I don’t think strawberry flavored yogurt will work lol 😃
Trish says
I used roasted garlic , yummy
Karin says
So delicious! Everyone loved it!!! I served it with crostini’s as the bread selection was weak. Went great with it. We were dipping celery sticks in there too. Thanks!
Amanda says
This is good, but insanely spicy! Could I had cream or equal parts mayo and yogurt to tone it down.
Emily says
Just curious – what was spicy about it? There’s no sort of pepper or anything to create spice that I can see from the recipe.
Lauren Allen says
The balsamic can have a little bit of a “bite” to it. So can the garlic (which could be blanched first to help with this). My kids (ages 7,5,3) love this dip.
Cathy Sullivan says
This was delish!!! Everyone loved it! Will definitely make again and again!
