Easy, Wholesome Homemade Mayonnaise

This super-easy mayonnaise is SO MUCH BETTER tasting and better FOR YOU than the prepared mayo you buy in the store.

Seriously: once you make this you will never go back! You can experiment by adding different spices and herbs to customize it – dill or chili powder would be amazing, depending on what you are using the mayo for.

    Ingredients

    • 1 large fresh organic egg
    • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
    • ½ tsp dry mustard
    • 1 cup avocado oil
    • ½ tsp salt (to taste)

    Directions

    1

    Place the egg, lemon juice and mustard in a high-speed blender or food processor (or if you want to use an immersion blender, in a large mason jar).

    2

    Turn on the blender/food processor and very slowly drizzle in the oil until the mixture begins to emulsify and looks like mayonnaise. Continue adding the oil. Adjust seasonings.

    3

    Let sit at room temperature (not too hot!) for about an hour before using or storing in the refrigerator. Will keep about two weeks.
