Using the crockpot to make spinach dip recipes is a real timesaver because food cooks slowly in there and you can get on with making other things. This spinach dip recipe is wonderfully creamy with the flavors of garlic, onion, thyme and more to enhance it.
You can either serve it inside a loaf of bread or with crackers, carrot sticks, or breadsticks to dip. Serving this spinach dip in a loaf of bread cuts down on washing up and looks great too! There are lots of cold spinach dips but this one is extra nice served warm because the flavors are more intense that way.

How to Make Spinach Dip

There are a few different ways of serving this spinach dip. You can simply serve it in a hollowed out loaf of bread and let people break off pieces of the loaf and dip them. This only works for really thick dips - bread is not waterproof! If you are having a sit-down dinner, you can serve some of this dip in individual bread rolls. This makes a nice looking appetizer recipe. If you thought that dip recipes could not be used for individual appetizers, this easy crockpot spinach dip recipe might change your mind.
