Easy Vegan Tofu Mayonnaise is easy to make, gluten-free, and much healthier than regular mayo. Perfect for salads, sandwiches, and wraps! Just 2 minutes and 5 ingredients are required.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (12-ounces) of Mori-Nu silken tofu (firm or extra firm)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (1 medium lemon)
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons of maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Add all of the ingredients to a food processor, blender, or immersion blender. Process until smooth and creamy.
  2. After blending and mixture is smooth, taste and adjust flavor as desired. If you want more tang add a little more lemon juice and apple cider vinegar. For savoriness, add a little garlic powder or salt.
  3. Store in an airtight container or glass jar with a lid in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Use in sandwiches anywhere you would use mayo. It’s perfect for carrot dogs, burgers, potato salad, coleslaw, dressings, and more!

Notes

I prefer Mori-Nu Silken Tofu for this type of recipe. It’s super creamy and very smooth. You will not get the same results with regular tofu.

Nutrition info does not include the addition of salt.

This tofu mayonnaise will firm up as it sits in the fridge. If you want to thin it out add a little soy milk and other non-dairy milk and stir.

Vegan mayo can be stored in an airtight container and kept in the fridge for up to one week. But, it is NOT freezer-friendly!

Try adding more “flavor” to your mayo by using your favorite fresh herbs.

This recipe is more on the subtle savory side. If you want a little sweetness simply add 1 teaspoon of maple syrup or agave.
