Ingredients
- EVOO: I use organic extra virgin olive oil as the base for this homemade salad dressing.
- Coconut Milk: Organic coconut milk makes this organic salad dressing creamy without dairy. I use Vita Coco Organic Coconut Milk for this. If you are using canned coconut milk that's extra thick, I'd recommend thinning it with water (do a 1 to 1 ratio) as that's usually what I do with canned coconut milk to make it similar.
- Spicy Brown Mustard: This gives this salad dressing its mustard flavor. Some mustards can have sugar, so if you want completely sugar free, just be sure to read the ingredient label. I actually just use the O Organics Spicy Brown Mustard, which is sugar free and has great flavor here!
- Apple Cider Vinegar: This gives this organic salad dressing a tang. You could use white vinegar in its place if that's all you have.

Tips for Vegan Honey Mustard Dressing
- Whisk together to combine ingredients well.
- Feel free to use another kind of dairy free milk, almond or oat milk also works. But, the coconut milk will give it a sweeter flavor (more similar to traditional honey mustard, which is why I use it here).
- You can use another kind of oil, avocado oil or even sunflower or canola oil work. I prefer EVOO as it's seed oil free.
- This dressing is thick, like honey mustard salad dressing should be. But, but if you want a thinner dressing, you can add water until you get desired consistency. Start with 1 teaspoon and go from there.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. I like to use a mason jar so it has a lid, this way you can shake it up as it can separate.

Recipe FAQ's
Yes, if you want to use avocado oil you can! You could also use sunflower or canola oil as well. But, I like to use EVOO for flavor and it's seed oil free. Avocado oil would be most similar to olive oil.
Yes, oat milk would also be a delicious option with a neutral flavor profile. You could also use almond milk, but it may have more of an almond flavor if you do.
Traditional honey mustard dressing is not vegan as it's made with honey. It can also have dairy as it is known to be a creamy dressing.
I use coconut milk for natural sweetness in this Vegan Honey Mustard Dressing. The combination of this with EVOO also makes this dressing creamy without dairy.
I use the O Organics Spicy Brown Mustard for this. It's sugar free and has great flavor. It's also easy to find.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Because this is homemade vegan honey mustard dressing it doesn't have any stabilizers, so separation is natural. All you need to do is shake it up and it's ready to go.
