This homemade honey mustard salad dressing is creamy, tangy, and perfectly balanced with a touch of sweetness. Made with simple pantry ingredients, it comes together in just minutes, with no blender required! It’s delicious drizzled over fresh greens, used as a dipping sauce, or tossed with roasted vegetables. Once you try this easy honey mustard dressing, you’ll never go back to store-bought again.
We suggest you use Dijon mustard when making this dressing. Dijon mustard is a traditional ingredient in French cuisine that has an intense yet balanced flavor. Having said that, most mustards will work well in this recipe; just adjust the amount of mustard to avoid making your dressing too intense or too sweet.
Finally, you can add a bit of water to thin out the honey mustard salad dressing. Add it in very small amounts, maybe a teaspoon at a time, until you get the consistency you wish.
Ingredients
- 3 tbsp mayo
- 1 tbsp mustard
- 1 tbsp honey
- Salt & pepper
Instructions
In a small bowl mix well the mayo, mustard, honey, salt and pepper. If the dressing feels too thick, add a splash of water to thin it out.
Notes
- Prep time: 5 minutes.
