Servings: 1 cup
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Cover tightly and shake until thoroughly combined. Taste and add more salt or pepper as needed. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Dressing will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
- Lemon Juice: Freshly squeezed lemon juice is ideal, but you can use bottled lemon juice in a pinch.
- Tasting: Always taste the dressing with a piece of lettuce and adjust the flavors as needed. You might want to add more maple syrup for sweetness, lemon juice for tanginess, or mustard for a more pronounced mustard flavor.
- Dip: Besides using the dressing to make salad, serve it as a dip for vegetables, crackers, or bread.
- Honey Mustard: Substitute the Dijon mustard with honey mustard for a sweeter dressing.
