Add the egg, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic to a tall, narrow container or the cup that comes with an immersion blender.
Pour the avocado oil on top, allowing it to settle above the other ingredients.
Place the immersion blender at the bottom of the container, making sure it fully covers the egg yolk. Turn it on and blend, keeping it at the bottom for about 10-15 seconds until the mixture begins to emulsify and turn creamy.
Slowly tilt and lift the immersion blender, blending the remaining oil into the mixture until fully incorporated into a thick mayo.
Add the hot sauce, cayenne pepper, and salt to the mayo. Blend again for a few seconds to evenly combine the spices.
Taste and adjust the spice level by adding more hot sauce or cayenne pepper if desired.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
