Keyword: avocado, vegan
Servings: 1 cup
- 1 avocado (130g, not including pit or peel)
- 1/4 cup water (60g)
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar (10g)
- 1 tsp lemon juice (5g)
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp oil (12g) (optional)
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper or hot sauce to taste (optional)
1. Begin with a ripe avocado. Discard the peel and pit, then cut the flesh into large pieces.
2. Add avocado, vinegar, lemon juice, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, water, and optional oil to a small blender or food processor. (If you do not own a blender, simply mash the avocado with a fork and stir in all other ingredients until smooth.)
3. Blend until completely smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed. If the texture is too thick, add a little more water and process again.
4. Taste, and season with additional salt and pepper to taste. I like to add 1/8 tsp more salt.
5. Transfer your avocado mayo to a container with a lid. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to four days.
