The Best 5 Minute Keto Blender Mayonnaise
Description
This mayonnaise recipe uses room temperature egg yolks combined with Dijon mustard and apple cider vinegar as a base, emulsified by gradually adding olive oil while blending in a food processor. The slow addition of oil creates a thick, creamy texture characteristic of traditional mayonnaise without preservatives.
The use of a combination of lighter olive oil and extra virgin olive oil (or other mild oils like macadamia or avocado) ensures a balanced flavor that is not overpowering. Lemon juice and salt finish the seasoning, with black pepper optional for added spice.
It can be used as a dip, sandwich spread, or salad dressing base, serving about 12 portions of 2 tablespoons each. The recipe emphasizes the importance of adding oil slowly to achieve proper emulsification.
Store in a sealed glass jar in the fridge for up to two weeks. If the mayo is too thick, stirring in a few drops of water can adjust the consistency. Variations include different oils and additional flavorings.
