This creamy Paleo Whole30 Mayo comes together quickly and tastes so much better than store bought. This will become your new favorite.
*Pictures updated 1/18, content is the same. Mayo in pictures is a double batch.
I know this recipe is super simple and super basic, but it’s such a good one to have. There are so many different variations you can do with it and I use it to make ranch dip (recipe coming soon). Now that I’ve made it, I’ll never buy it again. Not only can I control the ingredients that way, but the flavor is no comparison. So fresh, thick, and creamy. I always have some on hand to make a quick chicken or tuna salad.
It comes together so fast. Like, less than two minutes. It is very important to have all your ingredients at room temperature. I usually set the egg out the night before I plan on making it. If you forget, a handy tip is to fill a bowl with hot tap water and place the egg in it for 5 minutes. It will become room temperature that way.
I like to use a wide mouth mason jar and immersion blender. Those things are so affordable and so useful. I have the most success with that opposed to a regular blender. It is possible that way too though if that’s what you have.
Here are all the ingredients. So simple!
Put your egg, lemon juice, vinegar, salt and pepper in the jar.
Blend until combined. It will take just a few seconds.
Then slowly drizzle oil in with the blender on until all oil is poured in. I couldn’t take a picture of that because I only have two hands. 🙂 Move the blender up and down in the jar until it starts to thicken. You will also hear the motor change from a fast high pitch to a low slower sound.
Perfect!! So there you have it. In just a couple minutes you can make the best mayo of your life.
Make it, love it, spread it on everything!

Hi! In the recipe it says 1 egg, but in the pictures it shows 2 eggs.
Should I use 2 eggs??
Jessica DeMay says
Hi Sharon- just 1. I mention at the top of the text that I’m making a double batch in the pictures. Hope you enjoy!
Rhonda says
What would you recommend as a substitute for the coconut vinegar? Would apple cider vinegar work?
Jessica DeMay says
Hi Rhonda- yes, that will work! Enjoy!
