Instructions

In a small saucepan over low heat, combine honey, ground cinnamon, ground allspice, ground nutmeg, and ground ginger. Stir continuously until the mixture is warm and the spices are well incorporated. Do not let it boil. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Transfer the labneh to a serving dish, spreading it evenly to cover the base.

Drizzle the spiced honey mixture over the labneh, ensuring an even distribution.

Garnish with fresh mint leaves, tearing them slightly to release their aroma.

Drizzle olive oil over the top for added richness.

Serve immediately with warm pita bread, fresh vegetables, or as a spread on toasted bread.

💡 Chef's Tip

For a thicker consistency, use labneh; for a lighter texture, Greek yogurt is a suitable alternative. Adjust the amount of spices in the honey drizzle to suit your taste preferences. This dish can be prepared ahead of time; however, it's best served fresh to enjoy the contrast between the creamy labneh and the warm spiced honey.
