This creamy tofu mayonnaise is a healthy, vegan alternative to traditional mayo, made with silken tofu, tangy lemon juice, and flavorful Dijon mustard. Perfect as a spread or dip, it offers a smooth texture and subtle sweet and tangy notes without eggs or dairy.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 block firm silken tofu (about 12 oz / 340 g)
  • 2–3 teaspoons lemon juice (or white/apple cider vinegar)
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup (or other liquid sweetener)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt (to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Tofu: Remove the silken tofu from its container and gently pat off any excess water using a kitchen towel or napkin to avoid excess moisture that could dilute the mayonnaise.
  2. Blend Ingredients: Place the tofu, lemon juice, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, salt, and optional garlic powder into a blender, food processor, or use an immersion blender. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the tofu mayo and add more lemon juice, salt, or sweetener as needed to balance the flavors according to your preference. Once satisfied, your creamy tofu mayonnaise is ready to serve.

Notes

  • You can substitute lemon juice with white or apple cider vinegar depending on your taste preference.
  • Maple syrup can be replaced with agave syrup or another liquid sweetener of choice.
  • Use firm silken tofu for thicker consistency, but regular silken tofu can also be used.
  • Store the tofu mayonnaise in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • Optional garlic powder adds a subtle hint of garlic without overpowering the flavor.
