Baked Spinach Artichoke Dip

If you’re looking for something warm, cozy, and crowd-pleasing to hold you over between Thanksgiving and Christmas, this hot spinach artichoke dip is the perfect pick. It’s creamy, cheesy, and baked until golden and bubbly — exactly the kind of appetizer everyone gathers around.

I came across this version on Pinterest during that “in-between” stretch when the holidays are close but not quite here yet. The weather was cold, the fridge still had leftovers I didn’t want, and I needed something easy that felt comforting. I remember making this dip on a quiet weekend evening, turning on a movie, and letting it bake until the top turned perfectly golden. It filled the whole house with that warm, cozy smell that just makes you feel settled.

The best part? It took barely any effort. I served it with some chips and sliced bread, and it instantly became the snack of the night. Since then, it’s been one of my favorite go-to appetizers when I want something delicious without a big fuss.

Here’s the pin that inspired it so you can save it for later:

Serve it with tortilla chips, sliced baguette, or warm pita — it’s always the first thing to disappear.
