Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons tahini
- 4 tablespoons unsweetened plain vegan yogurt (protein-rich, such as soy or almond yogurt)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
- 2 tablespoons water (adjust for desired consistency)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the tahini and vegan yogurt. Whisk together until smooth and well-integrated.
Step 2
Add the Dijon mustard, maple syrup, and freshly squeezed lemon juice to the bowl. Stir thoroughly to combine.
Step 3
Sprinkle in the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly distribute the seasonings.
Step 4
Gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time, whisking after each addition until the dressing reaches your desired consistency. For a thicker dressing, use less water; for a thinner drizzle, add more.
Step 5
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if needed, adding a pinch more salt, lemon juice, or maple syrup to balance flavors.
Step 6
Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container for storage. It can be refrigerated for up to one week. Shake or stir before each use.
