- 1 cup walnuts, toasted
- 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs (use gluten-free if needed)

Ingredient Breakdown
1. Roasted Red Peppers
The smoky-sweet base of the dip, red peppers are essential for Muhammara’s signature flavor.
Substitution Idea: If fresh peppers aren’t available, jarred roasted red peppers are a convenient alternative.
2. Walnuts
Toasted walnuts provide a rich, nutty flavor and creamy texture.
Allergy Alternative: Substitute walnuts with sunflower seeds or almonds if needed.
3. Pomegranate Molasses
This tangy-sweet syrup is the secret ingredient that sets Muhammara apart.
Where to Find It: Available in Middle Eastern grocery stores or online.
Substitute: Use balsamic glaze or a mix of lemon juice and maple syrup.
4. Breadcrumbs
Breadcrumbs add body to the dip, making it thick and spreadable.
Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free breadcrumbs or ground oats.
5. Smoked Paprika and Cumin
These spices enhance the dip’s depth and warmth, giving it a subtly smoky, earthy flavor.
Instructions
Step 1: Roast the Red Peppers
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Place the red peppers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Roast for 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred and blistered.
- Transfer the peppers to a bowl, cover with a plate or plastic wrap, and let them steam for 10 minutes.
- Peel off the skins, remove the seeds, and set the roasted peppers aside.
Shortcut: Use jarred roasted red peppers for a quicker option.
Step 2: Toast the Walnuts
- Heat a dry skillet over medium heat.
- Add the walnuts and toast for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
- Remove from heat and let cool.
Step 3: Blend the Ingredients
- In a food processor, combine the roasted red peppers, toasted walnuts, breadcrumbs, pomegranate molasses, olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
- Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Adjust the seasoning to taste, adding more salt, lemon juice, or pomegranate molasses as desired.
Step 4: Serve and Garnish
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl.
- Garnish with pomegranate seeds, chopped parsley, and a drizzle of olive oil.
- Serve with pita bread, crackers, or fresh veggies for dipping.

Tips and Variations
1. Make Ahead
Muhammara tastes even better after a few hours in the fridge, as the flavors have time to meld. Prepare it a day in advance for the best results.
2. Adjust Texture
For a chunkier dip, pulse the ingredients instead of blending them completely smooth. If you prefer a thinner dip, add a tablespoon of water or olive oil while blending.
3. Use as a Sauce
Thin the dip with a bit of water or olive oil and drizzle it over roasted vegetables, grilled tofu, or grain bowls.
4. Customize the Flavor
- Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for some heat.
- Mix in a tablespoon of tahini for extra creaminess.
- Substitute smoked paprika with sweet paprika for a milder flavor.
5. Pairing Ideas
Muhammara pairs beautifully with:
- Warm pita bread or naan
- Crudité like carrots, celery, and cucumber
- Vegan cheese boards
- Grilled or roasted vegetables
