Keto Mayo

Written by: Dr. Frannie Koe, MD

Edited by: Breanne Hughes

 

Condiments can include but not be limited to:  mayo, salad dressings, BBQ sauce (although I had a really hard time making my keto sauce taste good!), veggie dips, meat dips such as sour cream, yogurt dips, and crab dips that my partner Tim makes. Also included in condiments are: hummus, nut butter dips, cheese dips and dips made with heavy cream. My kids use feta cheese a lot to make salads taste really good. 

 

Below is a recipe for mayonnaise which is both paleo and keto-friendly. I got this particular mayo recipe off the internet a long time ago. I have made it so many times that I know it by heart, and I don’t recall specifically whose original recipe I used. You can look one up or use this one. 

 

I often double the recipe below, especially when we make deviled eggs, Ranch dressing, big batches of salmon salad, or any other recipes which use mayo as a base. You have to go slowly with the immersion blender on a double recipe and work a little harder to get the extra oil blended in, but the extra effort is worth it, because the final product is delicious! You can add your own spices or additional flavors to taste to make an even tastier mayo. 

 

Keto Mayonnaise:

 

One large egg (*because it is a raw preparation, I always use one from my own chickens)

1 tbsp lemon or lime juice, freshly squeezed

A few dashes of salt, freshly ground pepper and garlic

1 Cup of cold pressed avocado oil, you can use high quality olive oil but it is much stronger in flavor

 

Place the spices, lemon and egg in a wide mouth pint jar. Do not blend! Add the oil to the ingredients in the bottom of the jar. Let is settle for about a minute. Use an immersion blender (I call it a stick blender). It has a long neck with a bell and blade on the end. Take it and slowly put it to the bottom of the jar. Hold it there and do not move it around. Turn it on and let it do its magic. In 30 seconds or so you have mayo! You can then slowly move the blender up to finish blending in the last bit of oil. Put on a lid and it keeps for approximately 10 days when stored in the refrigerator. I have kept mine longer. 

 

The immersion blenders are about $25 or so at Walmart. Below is a link (*affiliate) to an immersion blender on Amazon. This one on 3/26/22 was $27. If the blade does not go all the way to the edge of the bell it may not make your mayo correctly. I had one that did not make mayo very well. I happened to have two of these, but I’m not sure how. One works fine and it was the cheap one!
