The original post date of this recipe:
I originally published this healthy mayonnaise recipe in 2015.
I've recently gone in to update this post by adding add additional photos, information, and also adding a printable recipe card, however the recipe itself has not been changed.
How this recipe came to be:
Making homemade mayo had been on my list of things I wanted to make for a long, long time. Since my husband and I recently started eating a high-healthy-fat, low-carb diet, now was the time.
Every homemade mayonnaise recipe I'd seen calls for olive oil and eggs. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I wanted to bump up the healthy fat quota of my mayonnaise, so I decided to do a mix of avocado oil and olive oil.
What makes avocados a super food?
Did you know that avocados are considered one of the healthiest foods you can consume? It's true.
They packed with healthy monounsaturated fats, they're naturally nutrient-dense, and they each contain nearly 20 vitamins and minerals. Talk about a superfood!
The health benefits of avocados:
To learn more about the health benefits of avocados, all it takes is a quick internet search, and you'll be blown away by what you find.
Even though avocados are high in calories, they're the calories your internal organs (and your brain) require to keep in tip-top condition.
We've all heard the saying, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Well, I think it's high time that saying is rewritten, and the avocado takes its deserved place in the sun.

After seeing how gorgeous your mayo is I question myself about me failing making it from scratch at home. It so simple and your avocado oil touch is brilliant!

I love this! It really does sound like the best mayo ever!
Renee Goerger says
Avocado oil has been readily available in my local market for the past year or so, Katrina. Before that, I had to buy it in speciality stores, or on the internet. It's well worth it though. I use it in dressings too. SO good!
Katrina says
I'm going to have to break down (been wanting to anyway) and get some avocado oil. I don't eat store bought mayo anymore and never take the time to make homemade. Well, except I did once and didn't follow a recipe, tried some different things with a few recipes and it did not turn out well. Need to give it another try and stick with a recipe. 😉
