Serves: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon dried dill
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk, 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon of dried dill, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, and salt to taste.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, pour in the 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk. This will serve as the base for your ranch dressing.
- Add 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to the almond milk. This ingredient will help to create a tangy flavor, similar to traditional ranch dressing.
- Next, sprinkle in 1 tablespoon of dried dill. This herb adds a fresh, aromatic quality to the dressing.
- Then, add 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and 1 teaspoon of onion powder to the mixture. These spices will enhance the overall flavor profile of your ranch dressing.
- Using a whisk or a fork, thoroughly mix all the ingredients together until they are well combined and smooth. Make sure there are no lumps.
- Taste the dressing and add salt to your preference. Start with a small pinch and adjust as needed.
- Once the dressing is well mixed and seasoned to your liking, transfer it to an airtight container or a jar with a lid.
- Refrigerate the vegan ranch dressing for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. However, it can be used immediately if you’re in a hurry.
- Serve your Easy Vegan Ranch Dressing as a dip for vegetables, a dressing for salads, or as a flavorful sauce for wraps and sandwiches.
Tips

- For a thicker dressing, you can add a small amount of silken tofu or cashew cream
- Experiment with fresh herbs like chives or parsley for added complexity
