Two Easy Recipes!
Looking for a healthy, oil-free alternative to traditional mayo? This post features two delicious, whole food, plant-based mayonnaise recipes that are rich, creamy, and packed with flavor—without any processed oils! Say goodbye to store-bought mayo and hello to these whole food, plant-based, oil-free vegan mayonnaise recipes made with simple, wholesome ingredients! This rich and creamy mayo gets its smooth texture from cannellini beans or silken tofu, delivering the perfect balance of tangy, savory, and slightly sweet flavors.
With just a few pantry staples like apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and garlic powder, this mayo is not only oil-free but also packed with plant-based goodness. For an eggy flavor, try adding a pinch of Kala Namak (Indian black salt).
Indian black salt adds a unique and distinctive flavor that mimics the taste of eggs.
Both of these easy, oil-free mayo recipes are made with simple, wholesome ingredients and can be customized to suit your taste. Whether you prefer the heartiness of beans or the silky smoothness of tofu, you’ll have a healthy, dairy-free, and oil-free mayo option ready to enjoy!

Can the mayo recipe using white beans be frozen?
Hi Maggie, I haven’t tried freezing it so I can’t say for sure. I would think it would free ok because my Creamy Balsamic Dressing that is made with beans freezes well,
If you try freezing it, please let me know if it worked. Thank you!
