In reply to Kathy. Hi Kathy, so glad you loved the recipe! You might be able to omit the walnuts. I'd start there and then pulse in another 1/4 cup of breadcrumbs if the dip is too thin. Otherwise, if your family can have seeds, you could use 1/4 cup sunflower seeds in place of the walnuts.

I loved the Muhammara recipe, which we just made the other night. Unfortunately, all three of our children are either allergic to nuts or have children allergic to nuts. Is there a good substitute for the walnuts in this recipe?

I wanted to prepare a Mezze platter for out of town friends and came upon your ideas and recipes. Note that I’ve made several of your delicious recipes before so I was confident with the Mezze recipes…oh my!! This Muhammara blew us all away…the complexity of the flavors were delightful and absolutely scrumptious! This is definitely a keeper. The only thing I did not have was the Aleppo pepper so I substituted with the red pepper flakes as you indicated. 20 out of 10!!

I routinely make this with pecans, and I like it better that way.

Add a little more olive oil, or if you use jarred peppers you could use a little of the juice from the jar. You could also reduce the bread crumbs

Absolutely fantastic!! Equal to or better than muhammara in the restaurants. I did reduce the cumin to 1/2 tsp just because I’m a bit sensitive to it. But added just enough so I could taste it w/o it being overwhelming

also – used a giant jar of roasted peppers from costco. Measured out 18 oz, dried thoroughly, and they worked beautifully

PS – roast your walnuts for a deeper walnutty flavor
