This sugar-free mayo recipe eliminates the need for unnecessary sweeteners, offering a simple combination of egg, oil, vinegar, and salt for a delicious flavor without compromising on quality.
When selecting oil, a mix of oils or olive oil with a more neutral flavor is recommended. Achieving the right balance of oil, egg, and vinegar is essential for a smooth, creamy texture. The choice of vinegar, such as apple cider or white wine vinegar, adds a delightful tartness without the need for added sugar.
The blending process is straightforward with an immersion blender, quickly incorporating the oil to prevent splitting. The result is a delicious, homemade sugar-free mayonnaise with a heart-healthy profile, diabetic-friendly attributes, and a taste that surpasses store-bought options.
Troubleshooting:
Did the mayo not combine properly? If the mix looks separated, don't worry - just leave it for a minute to settle, then put the blender in again and without moving it around, blend again until you see it thicken. Then move the blender to fully combine.
If it's combined but still a little too thin, just add another tablespoon of oil and repeat the process - it will thicken up!
In a world where the contents of store-bought products are often unknown, creating homemade alternatives like sugar-free mayonnaise provides a satisfying sense of control and contributes to a cleaner, healthier kitchen. Enjoy the benefits of this easy recipe, and discover the joy of homemade mayonnaise over the conventional store-bought variety.

Hi, Catherine. Would it be possible to make this mayo in a jar with a lid and vigorously shake it? Cheers, Al

Hi Karen, thank you for your message. It won't work with a hand whisk but a normal blender could possibly work if you let the ingredients settle around the blade before you turn it on. Let me know how it goes if you try it!

I don't have an immersion blender. How else can I blend this?

I made this using my 200W hand blender (£4.75 @Asda) & a jam jar i had that's wide enough for the blender wand to sit in. I've seen mayo made with a hand whisk in a mixing bowl: you add the oil A VERY LITTLE AT A TIME while whisking. Don't rush it.
