Editor’s Note: Aquafaba refers to the liquid of canned chickpeas, or the liquid leftover from cooking beans at home. This Aquafaba Mayo is a vegan, healthier alternative to mayonnaise.
Once the Aquafaba Mayo is ready, try adding one of these flavor variations:
- 1 clove minced garlic (to turn it into aioli)
- 1-2 teaspoons miso paste
- Chipotle chili powder, to taste
- Sriracha sauce, to taste
- Spices such as smoked paprika, cumin or fresh herbs
Aquafaba Mayo
Servings
1 Servings
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons aquafaba
- 1 tablespoons apple cider vinegar I use raw
- 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pure maple syrup
- 3/4 cup neutral tasting oil I use avocado oil
Instructions
- Mix auquafaba, vinegar, mustard, salt and maple syrup in a bowl or large glass measuring cup (preferably something deep to prevent mix from splattering) with an immersion blender until incorporated.
- Drizzle in oil slowly, 1/4 cup at a time, continuously mixing with the immersion blender. Mixture will start to become pale, thick and creamy as you keep mixing, until it reaches the consistency of mayonnaise.

Yes! You add it at the beginning. You can actually skip the maple syrup. I wouldn’t use either honey (its flavor might be too strong) nor corn syrup. But if you are in Israel, you can use silan.
do you add the aquafaba in the beginning with the vinager? also what can i use instead of maple syrup? can i use honey or corn syrup?
