Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (I used Blue Diamond Almond Milk)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons flaxmeal (ground flax meal not the flax seeds, use golden flax not dark flax)
  • 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground dry mustard
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder (optional, add it if you love garlic!)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar (white wine vinegar)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (fresh)
  • 1 cup oil (Canola oil or grapeseed oil)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Combine the almond milk and ground flax in a blender. Blend on high speed until flax meal is barely noticeable and the mixture is frothy (about a minute).

  • Step 2: Add the sugar, dry mustard, onion powder, (if using, the garlic powder)salt, vinegar and lemon juice, blending for a few seconds to combine.

  • Step 3: Using the small hole on top of your blender add the oil, stream in a tablespoon at a time, blending for about 30 seconds after each addition (if using a high power blender like Vitamix 5 to 10 secs should do it.). Give your blender a break every now and again so that it doesn’t heat up the mayo. You should notice it thickening by the halfway point. By the time you’ve used 3/4 of the oil, it should be spreadable. And with the last addition, you should have a thick mayo. If it seems watery, keep blending.

  • Step 4: It will probably taste saltier and tangier than you’d like straight out of the blender, the flavors mellow and becomes perfect. *** Transfer to glass jar seal tightly and refrigerate for 6 hours before using and it will thicken even further.

  • Step 5: Use within a week.
