How to Prepare

Put all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth and creamy. There's no need to drain the silken tofu. Just put the whole thing in and blend. I use a mini blender when I make this, and it works great.

Recipe FAQs

Does vegan mayo have eggs?

No, store-bought vegan mayo and this Easy Vegan Mayo recipe does not have eggs. Eggs are an animal product and if it's vegan, it contains no animal products.

What is vegan mayo made of?

Store-bought vegan mayo is expensive and made with a lot of oil, increasing the amount of saturated fat and calories in the spread. Some vegan mayo brands also contain an additive called Calcium Disodium EDTA, used to extend the shelf life, which may cause digestive issues when consumed in large amounts. When you make your own mayo, you get to control what goes in it. This Easy Vegan Mayo is made of silken tofu, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and you can salt to taste.

What's the healthiest mayo?

The healthiest mayo is the one you make yourself, with whole plant foods.

    I make this almost every week. I never feel guilty about eating this low fat mayo. Sometimes, I use it as a base for a dressing.
