Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Cooked or canned white beans (e.g., cannellini or great Northern beans)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Aquafaba (liquid from canned chickpeas or beans)
- 2 small Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Drain and rinse the white beans if using canned beans. Set them aside.
Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves.
In a blender or food processor, combine the white beans, lemon juice, olive oil, aquafaba, chopped garlic, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper.
Blend the mixture on high speed until it becomes smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the blender or food processor as needed to ensure everything is evenly combined.
Taste the aioli and adjust the seasoning if necessary by adding more lemon juice, salt, or pepper.
Transfer the aioli to a serving bowl or an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Serve the Vegan White Bean Aioli as a dip for vegetables, a spread for sandwiches, or a sauce for roasted potatoes and other dishes.
