Intro

Aleppo Pepper Labneh Toast is a bright and satisfying dish that brings together tangy labneh, the citrusy depth of lemon zest, and the subtle smoky warmth of Aleppo pepper. This toast is more than just a snack—it’s a flavorful ode to Levantine mornings. The Aleppo pepper adds a gentle kick without overwhelming heat, making it accessible for all palates. It’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a midday bite that feels indulgent but is surprisingly simple to assemble.
