Egg-Free Mayonnaise Recipe
All you need to make this egg-free mayonnaise recipe is olive oil, marcona almonds, apple cider vinegar, and maple syrup.
Vegan Mayonnaise Recipe
If you don’t want to use maple syrup you can use agave. I don’t like to use agave but since it has such a neutral flavor profile it’s perfect for this recipe. Honey doesn’t work in this recipe, and it’s not vegan.
How to Make Egg-Free Mayonnaise
You will definitely want to use marcona almonds for this recipe. There’s something special about them. First they don’t have skins. Second, they’re roasted. Third, they’re salted and oily.
Egg-Free Mayonnaise
Ingredients
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- ½ cup olive oil
- 2-4 tablespoons salted marcona almonds
Instructions
- Pour vinegar and maple syrup into vitamix and puree on high speed for 20 seconds until combined
- With motor running on medium or high, drizzle in olive oil to create an emulsion
- Don’t worry, if you don’t get the emulsification, the almonds will thicken up your mixture
- Blend in 2 tablespoons of almonds, then check for thickness and texture
- If necessary, blend in another tablespoon of almonds, until thick and creamy
- Serve with sandwiches, burgers and salads

I’m blessed to have stumbled onto your site and have found quite a few recipes that are wonderful. In my search for condiments I haven’t yet found a mayo and want to try this. My concern is the warning on the label of the Marcona Almonds: Packaged in the same facility as peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, soy, sesame, and milk products. I avoid wheat, soy and milk products. In your experience is this warning more likely to be a CYA technique “just in case . . . ” or are processors really that sloppy regarding cross-contamination?
