Crisp on the outside, soft on the inside—Moroccan Khobz Toast with Amlou is a breakfast rooted in Berber tradition that feels both comforting and luxurious. Khobz, a traditional round semolina bread, is toasted and slathered with Amlou—a rich blend of almonds, argan oil, and honey. It’s warm, nutty, and perfect with a cup of mint tea or coffee.
📜 What Is Amlou?
“The Moroccan answer to nut butter.”
Amlou is a thick, creamy spread native to southwestern Morocco. Made with roasted almonds, argan oil, and honey, it’s naturally sweet and packed with healthy fats. Traditionally served with Khobz or pancakes (baghrir), it’s the kind of spread that elevates even the simplest breakfast.
