Bread Dipping Oil Recipe – A super easy, super delicious appetizer that comes together in under 5 minutes.
This is a copycat recipe of the Carrabba’s bread dip!
And it makes these easiest appetizer for a dinner party!! A bread basket is the best part of going to a restaurant. So why not normalize that at dinner parties at home.
Here is a great platter to serve this dip in. I love it because the dip part is glass so you can put oil in it. And it cleans very easily!
You could take this up a level and serve it our Easy Tuscan Herb Artisan Bread.
If you want to keep it super easy – just use any Italian or sourdough bread and cut into bite size pieces.
You can adjust any of the spices to your liking.
Can you make this bread dipping oil recipe ahead of time?
Yes! You can make this oil ahead of time. It stays good for awhile. I usually double or triple the recipe so that I have some on hand. No need to refrigerate it. The oil will harden if you do.

Dear Emily and Jen – I love the herb dipping oils and bread too! We have a lovely local restaurant named Cotton. My husband and I ate there last week and had delicious bread and dipping oil very similar to yours. Now I can make it at home. WHEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! Looks fabulous.

How long does it keep?

It should keep for quite a few months if you store it in a cool, dry place!

Everyone loved this when I served it for a family get-together. And it couldn’t be easier to make or more convenient to do ahead of time. I love fresh bread with dipping oil, what a great invention! Thanks for the post!
