This vegan mayo made from silken tofu and cashews<\/strong> is creamy, oil-free, and ready in five minutes \u2014 with around 75% fewer calories than classic mayonnaise. No egg, no oil, no compromise on taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I don't know when I last bought ready-made mayonnaise. It must be years ago. But honestly, no homemade vegan version had really convinced me either. Either too runny, too bland, too artificial in taste, or simply full of oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With this recipe I've finally cracked the code for a creamy, homemade vegan mayo that comes incredibly close to the original but is noticeably healthier \u2014 completely oil-free, made instead with nutrient-rich ingredients.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n[feast_advanced_jump_to]\n\n\n A little nutrition note:<\/strong> Conventional mayo is around 75% fat \u2014 almost entirely from refined oil, with no notable micronutrients. This oil-free version has significantly less fat, and the fat it does contain comes from whole foods: cashews provide zinc, iron and magnesium.<\/strong> On top of that, silken tofu and cashews deliver high-quality protein \u2014 something supermarket mayo simply can't match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here's a quick overview of what goes into this oil-free vegan mayo and why each ingredient earns its place. (You'll find the exact quantities further down in the recipe card.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n See recipe card for quantities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Making this vegan mayo couldn't be easier \u2014 here it is in three simple steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The components may separate<\/strong> over time in the fridge. If that happens, just give the mayo a good stir.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n You can adjust the flavor of this low-fat vegan tofu mayonnaise however you like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The vegan tofu mayo goes perfectly with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n In theory yes - but the result will be much firmer. You may need to add more water and seasoning.<\/p> <\/div> In the fridge in a clean, well-sealed screw-top jar it keeps for 8-9 days. Since it contains no oil and no preservatives, always use a clean spoon. Freezing works technically but changes the texture \u2014 fresh is clearly best.<\/p> <\/div> Barely, if at all \u2014 that\u2019s the beauty of silken tofu. It\u2019s so neutral that it stays completely in the background.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n Looking for other recipes like this? Try these: <\/p>\n\n\n
