Artichoke Dip takes five minutes of prep and full of artichokes, Parmesan and cheese that is baked in a bread bowl for the perfect appetizer!
It takes just five minutes to prepare this dip then let it toast away in the oven until it is bubbly and browned in its own delicious bread bowl (team sourdough here but anything you like will work). To add meaty flavor to the cheesy dip, you can also try my Easy Crab Artichoke Dip.
Sabrina’s Artichoke Dip Recipe
Artichoke Cheese Dip wasn’t a recipe I came by through the wonderful world of Pinterest. I was with my husband and his mom at a farmer’s market in Los Angeles one day probably ten years ago and we were rounding the “hey you want delicious smelling prepared food don’t you?!” section of the market. There was a stand that sold prepared dips and Middle Eastern food like feta and olives (they were so overpriced I think my deal seeking heart may have died a little). But, after sampling this flavorful dip I knew I had to make it myself.

Baking Tips and Tricks
- The artichoke dip is perfectly delicious cold! So if you’re thinking of office parties or picnics, you can absolutely make this recipe part of the party.
- You can bake the dip in a baking pan or oven-safe bowl if you’d prefer to serve with something other than the bread bowl, but I must warn you the leftover bowl and dip re-toasted may be one of life’s most amazing pleasures. It is GOOD.
- Add some spice/heat to the mix and add in some diced jalapenos. I only added them on top as a garnish but adding a half a de-seeded and minced jalapeno will give the Artichoke Dip a delicious kick.
- If you want you can absolutely use canned artichokes, just make sure you aren’t using marinaded ones. Use a non-marinaded or frozen artichoke heart, I like the Trader Joe’s frozen ones.

This was a hit! I used grilled artichokes and an oat sourdough. Absolutely incredible in
Sounds delicious!
This recipe is fabulous. I used ricotta (because I had it) in place of sour cream and forgot the artichokes! It was still delicious. I think I may try with crab meat next time or may leave out artichokes again. I don ‘t think it’s possible to screw this up. Can also be presented in plain heatproof bowl surrounded with french/italian bread sliced or crackers.
Love it! Thanks for the 5 stars!
It’s time to dip dip dip! So much yum!
