Homemade Avocado Mayo

Regular mayonnaise is typically made with a base of egg yolks, which I will say can be delicious but the number of calories and carbs in one serving is insane!

So today, I decided to whip up my own recipe which is one out of avocados and dijon mustard. Let me tell you, the creaminess and flavor is out of this world!

Green mayo might be a little surprising at first but, once you realize it’s from the avocado, you are going to love it!

The best thing about making your own mayo is that you control how spicy or tangy it is. Plus, you know exactly what is in it.

I love using this avocado mayo recipe as a veggie dip – it sure makes eating my raw veggies a lot more enjoyable.

Keep reading and I’ll share all the details about this amazing low-carb avocado mayo! Plus, I’ll share some tips, tricks, and ideas about how to use it.

Ingredients Needed To Make Avocado Mayonnaise

A complete list of all the ingredient amounts and the detailed instructions are in the printable recipe card at the bottom of this post. First, I’m going to share some additional info along with some step-by-step pictures.

There are just 6 simple ingredients in this mayo.

1. Avocado

The main one is avocado, of course! It needs to be ripe enough for you to peel and scoop out and mash easily.

2. Apple Cider Vinegar

I know vinegar sounds a little weird but trust me! It’s an important part of this avocado mayo recipe.

You could probably use distilled white vinegar as a substitute. Don’t use any other vinegar though – all the wine vinegars and balsamic varieties will change the taste too much.

3. Mustard

I also added a little bit of dijon mustard. You can use a really spicy or robust one if you want it to have a little more bite.

4. Garlic

Add some fresh minced garlic next! Trust me, fresh garlic is much better than garlic powder, but you can use garlic powder instead if that’s all you have.

5. Lemon

For the fresh lemon juice, you can use jarred lemon juice or fresh-squeeze juice – they are both perfect.

6. Oil

Finally, this needs more oil. Since I used avocado, I used avocado oil. The result was a perfectly blended avocado mayo.

Olive oil is mild enough to work too.

Quick Tips:

• Even though you don’t necessarily need to use a food processor, I found that it makes the entire process so much easier. Just put them all in the machine, turn it on, and let it do its magic!
• You can also use a blender. You need something with blades – an electric mixer won’t puree the avocado and mix everything as well.
• If you want the mayo to be even creamier, add one more tablespoon of olive or avocado oil.
• You don’t have to add more salt, but I think it enhances the flavors.

How To Make Keto Avocado Mayo At Home

This is one of the easiest recipes I have ever made! It is literally as simple as putting everything in a food processor and pulsing until it is smooth.

You can adjust the amounts of the different ingredients to suit your taste. If you want it a little spicier, use spicy mustard.

My only suggestion is to use fresh ingredients. It really does enhance the flavor a lot when you do.

How To Use Avocado Mayo In Keto Recipes

So, how do you use avocado mayo? Honestly, you can use this the same way you use traditional mayo!

• Mix this mayo with some shredded chicken and you’ll have the most amazing creamy chicken salad to add on top of some keto sandwich bread or some mixed greens. Try swapping out the chicken for a tuna salad!
• It also tastes perfect spread on some baked or grilled fish.
• Even though it is creamy, you can still use it as a marinade for chicken and fish. The oils from the avocado will soak into the meat, keeping it juicy as you cook it.
• You definitely need to try this as the dressing for your homemade coleslaw. You’ll never go back to regular mayo again!

Frequently Asked Questions About Avocado Mayonnaise

The complete recipe is just a little further below. First, I am going to answer a few questions people have about avocado mayo.

Is avocado mayo good for you?

Yes, avocado mayo is really nutritious. Avocado is a fantastic source of healthy monounsaturated fats. These are the fats your body needs to burn in order to fuel your brain.

It’s also high in a very important omega-9 fatty acid that has immune-boosting properties.

How long does avocado mayo last in the fridge?

Fresh avocado mayo that you make at home will last about 4 days in the refrigerator. I suggest making a small batch so that you don’t waste ingredients. This is why I only used one avocado!

Does this taste good on burgers?

Yes, this tastes perfect on a grilled burger. Top it with some onions and cheese and you have a BBQ dream come true.
