Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Prep Time 5 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 whole eggs farm fresh or pasteurized, find out how to pasteurize your eggs at home here
  • 2 cups avocado oil I've heard extra light olive oil is good too, but I haven't tried it
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vinegar
  • 1-2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice I use 2 tablespoons

Instructions
 

  • In a tall, narrow container (such as a mason jar), add 2 raw eggs, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of ground mustard, 1/2 teaspoon of vinegar, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice.
  • Insert the immersion blender all the way to the bottom of the jar. If using a food processor or blender instead, see notes in the post above!
  • Start blending on low speed and gradually increase to high speed while slowly pouring in 2 cups of avocado oil.
  • The mixture will begin to thicken. Keep blending until all of the oil is emulsified and the texture is smooth and creamy.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  • Refrigerate and enjoy! The texture will thicken up a bit after refrigerating and will even more closely resemble store bought mayo! Don't forget to pin this to save for later!
