Healthy and Easy Homemade Mayonnaise

6/1/2022

Have you noticed how condiments can take your meal from healthy to unhealthy? Whether it's the unnecessary addition of sugar or soybean oil, many include ingredients such as added oils that are missing from the beautiful marketing on the front of the bottle or jar! Oils like soybean, canola, and other "seed" oils are highly oxidized oils with highly inflammatory effects on the entire body. The best options are organic, cold, and expeller-pressed coconut or avocado oils. Unlike seed oils, these healthy oils really do come from vegetables! 

This fresh homemade mayonnaise has no sugar, artificial ingredients, or soy. It tastes so delicious you will never go back too store-bought again.

Yields about a Pint

​Ingredients:
1 Large Egg (room temperature)
1 1/2 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar or White Vinegar
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp Granulated garlic
Kosher salt to taste
1 cup Avocado Oil

Optional ingredients to add or omit:
Paprika
Dill
Chives
Parsley

Directions:
  1. Start by layering each ingredient as listed into a mason jar (eggs must be on the bottom).
  2. Add the egg, vinegar, pinch of salt, Dijon mustard, and garlic.
  3. Using an emulsion blender, blend the mixture for about 5-6 seconds.
  4. Slowly add the avocado oil and blend for about 25-30 seconds.

    WElcome!
