How to make mayonnaise without eggs

What I did was puree some blanched almonds in the blender with some other condiments – mustard powder, black pepper, pink salt, lemon and coconut oil.

You can use sunflower seeds instead of almonds and yield the same results – I have tried both.

The coconut oil will give the mixture a wonderful silky smooth texture with some medium chain fats that are easily digestible and optimise our body’s good fats.
