Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups raw walnuts
- 1 1/4 cups avocado oil (or olive oil)
- 1/4 cup sherry vinegar
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
- 2 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1 small shallot, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt (or more to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper (or more to taste)
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to your Vitamix or other high speed blender.
- Blend until smooth.
Notes
- If you stop and start the blender when blending this dressing it will get very thick. Because of that I recommend blending it all in one go, unless you prefer a thicker type dressing with more of a dip consistency.
- This recipe makes a large batch of dressing. If you prefer a smaller batch I suggest cutting the recipe in half.
