Smoky Eggplant Baba Ganoush with Almond Dukkah and EVOO

This baba ganoush is a Middle Eastern–inspired dip that layers deep, fire-roasted eggplant flavor with creamy tahini, lemon, and garlic, finished with a crunchy, aromatic almond dukkah. The eggplant is charred until tender and smoky, while the dukkah—made from toasted almonds, seeds, and warm spices—adds texture and nutty complexity on top. Served with warm flatbread, pita chips, or fresh vegetables, it’s an elegant yet simple appetizer that combines creaminess, smokiness, and satisfying crunch in every bite.
