Vegan Mayo

Creamy, tangy, and irresistibly smooth, this Vegan Mayo is the ultimate plant-based alternative to traditional mayonnaise. Made with pantry staples like unsweetened soy milk, apple cider vinegar, and a touch of Dijon mustard, this recipe comes together in just 5 minutes using an immersion or standard blender. The key to its rich, velvety texture is the slow emulsion process, where neutral-flavored vegetable oil is gently drizzled in for perfect consistency every time. Customizable with a hint of maple syrup for sweetness, this egg-free, dairy-free mayo is ideal for sandwiches, salads, and dips. Whip up a batch of this versatile condiment and elevate your meals while sticking to a vegan lifestyle!

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Unsweetened soy milk
• 1 cup Neutral-flavored vegetable oil (e.g., canola or sunflower oil)
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Maple syrup (optional, for slight sweetness)

Directions

Step 1

Add the unsweetened soy milk, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and salt to a tall, narrow container or a blender jar. If you prefer a slightly sweet mayo, add the maple syrup too.

Step 2

Using an immersion blender, start blending the mixture on low speed. Alternatively, if you’re using a standard blender, secure the lid and blend on low speed.

Step 3

While blending, very slowly drizzle in the vegetable oil. This step is crucial for the emulsion process, so take your time to pour the oil in a thin, steady stream.

Step 4

Keep blending until the mixture thickens and reaches a creamy mayo consistency. This should only take 1-2 minutes.

Step 5

Taste your mayo and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, vinegar, or lemon juice if needed for your desired flavor.

Step 6

Transfer the vegan mayo to a clean, airtight container and refrigerate. Allow it to chill for at least 30 minutes to further thicken and develop its flavor.

Step 7

Your vegan mayo is now ready to use! Store it in the fridge for up to 1 week.
