5-minute Whole30 Mayo

5-minute Whole30 Mayo

5 min

An EASY budget-friendly way to make Whole30, Paleo, Keto mayo. Includes 5 no-fail tips to make sure it turns out *every* time!

Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup light tasting olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 squirt mustard (about a teaspoon) (optional)
  • Immersion Blender*

Directions

  1. 1

    NOTE: For the emulsification to happen, the jar you do it in has to be just bigger than the head of your immersion blender. Many blenders now come with such a jar, otherwise a wide-mouth mason jar has worked well for me.

  2. 2

    First crack the egg into the jar, it's important the egg is on the bottom. Then, pour the remaining ingredients into the jar. Let the ingredients settle for a minute or two.

  3. 3

    Put the head of the immersion blender in the jar of ingredients, waiting a moment to let the ingredients separate after doing so. Don't rush this!

  4. 4

    Holding blender down at the bottom of the jar right on top of the egg yolk, turn on blender (on high if your blender has speeds). Don't move the blender for 10-15 seconds! Once the white creamy mayo has formed halfway up the mixture, slowly pull blender up towards the top of the jar. Move blender up and down through the jar a few times slowly. And voila!
