Start with a large mixing bowl and a whisk, or use an immersion blender with its container for better emulsification.
In the mixing bowl or container, combine the egg yolk, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and ground white pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and slightly foamy.
Begin adding the avocado oil slowly in a very thin stream while continuously whisking the mixture. If using an immersion blender, keep it on low speed as you gradually incorporate the oil. The key is to pour the oil slowly to ensure the mixture emulsifies properly.
Continue to add the oil gradually while whisking until all of it has been incorporated and the mixture has thickened to a creamy consistency.
Once the oil is fully blended, add the apple cider vinegar and whisk to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt, lemon juice, or vinegar, depending on your preference.
Transfer the mayonnaise to a clean glass jar with a tight-fitting lid. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
Enjoy your homemade Keto Classic Mayonnaise Dressing as needed. It makes approximately 1 cup, or 16 servings, where each serving is about 1 tablespoon.
