Use this One Minute Mayo recipe to make homemade avocado oil mayonnaise in just a minute. Add six simple ingredients to a mason jar and blend! It is so easy to make a healthy, Whole30 compliant mayonnaise.

Weeknight-easy

Beginner-friendly

You’ll Learn: How to nail the texture

Worth It: Simple method, great results without fussy steps

Bonus: Versatile base for dips, sauces, and dressings

Make your avocado oil mayo at home in just one minute!

I thought I really knew this prior to Whole30, but now I definitely know: homemade is ALWAYS better. It just is. This one minute mayo is no exception and when it takes a minute or less of cook time, how can you not make it at home?

Not only will you be saving time and serious money (I’ll do a little calculation for you down below), but mayo will become the base of so many tasty recipes! I have made some awesome spicy mayo with this stuff and then ate it with french fries and used it for a sushi burrito.

Keep reading to see how mayo is made and how easy it is to make a jar at home!

Save money and make this One Minute Mayo at home

I really love this one minute mayo as a base for other sauces. I have made garlic sauces and spicy mayos galore!

My favorite spicy mayo option is to combine 1 TBSP of this homemade mayo with 1 tsp of sriracha. That combo with crispy oven baked french fries is heaven.

Let’s talk about cost for a minute. I can get a pack of pasture raised eggs (the most expensive I buy) for $5.99 for a dozen so thats $0.50 for the egg, about $2 for the oil, $0.25 for the lemon and negligible cost for the spices, but we will call it $0.10.

That’s $2.85 for a jar of avocado oil mayo. The same amount in a store bought container is as much as $9 for a Whole30 compliant mayo.

What kitchen tools will I need for this Whole30 mayo?

  • Measuring spoons
  • Liquid measuring cup
  • Wide mouth mason jar
  • Immersion blender

What ingredients will I need to make this One Minute Mayo?

  • Room temperature egg – the egg cannot be cold or else this recipe will not work
  • Avocado oil or light olive oil – avoid using extra virgin olive to get the best flavor
  • Lemon juice
  • Salt
  • Mustard powder
  • Ground black pepper

How mayo is made in one minute

Step 1: Add ingredients to a jar

First, add all of the ingredients to a wide mouth jar. Then, place an immersion blender into the jar.

Step 2: Blend

Starting at the bottom, blend the ingredients. Slowly pull the blender up and down until all of the oil is incorporated. Finally, store in an airtight container in the fridge

How long does homemade mayo last?

The best way to determine how long your homemade mayo will last is to check the expiration date on your egg. That is the expiration date of your mayo.

Once you know that date you can take a sharpie and some tape and write the date on your jar!

    Under the ingredient list you state “1/2 white pepper.” What measurement do you mean? I assume 1/2 tsp?

    Loving this mayo! We’ve made it three times already…
    What’s the longest you’d recommend storing it in the fridge for?

      ah yay! I am so glad!! A good rule is to look at the expiration date for the egg you used. As long as that is good your mayo should be good

      Hi Mel,

      Not sure, but you can try adding more oil and continue to blend it with an immersion blender

    Is it suppose to be this runny! It’s like liquid, not solid at all.

      nope it should be solid like mayo. Your egg is likely the issue. It must be room temp in order for the mayo to form properly. You can also add more oil and blend again
