1/2 cup (~130g) has about 210 calories.
Why estimates miss: Baba Ganoush is a multi-ingredient dish. The tahini and oil push the fat higher than the smoky eggplant suggests. Generic calorie apps undercount the hidden oil, sauce and portion — CalDesk AI's photo estimate is tuned to catch exactly this.
