Ingredients You’ll Need
- raspberries – the star of this homemade salad dressing and you can use fresh or frozen berries! Just make sure to thaw them out first.
- olive oil – I like to use a good olive oil that doesn’t have to be expensive, just make sure it’s cold-pressed and organic for the most flavor (in my opinion).
- red wine vinegar – adds a nice tangy flavor that goes perfect with the olive oil and raspberries, but feel free to use apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar if thats what you have on hand.
- balsamic vinegar – this adds such a rich, tangy flavor. Make sure to use a quality balsamic vinegar to get the most flavor.
- honey – adds a touch of sweetness without any refined sugars, you could also use maple syrup to make this vegan.
- shallot – I just love the light, sweet taste of shallots in this dressing.
- salt + pepper
How to Make Raspberry Vinaigrette
I love making homemade dressings and vinaigrettes because they are just SO easy and take less than 5 minutes to mix together. Simply throw all your ingredients into the bowl of your food processor, blender or NutriBullet and blend until nice and smooth. That’s it! Pour the dressing into a sealed airtight container and store in the refrigerator until you’re ready to use. This dressing will last up to 1 week in the fridge, but definitely tastes best as fresh as possible.
I personally like to store my dressings in mason jars because they have a nice tight seal, they are easy to take on-the-go, and you can just add all your ingredients and give the jar a good shake!
Make it Creamy!
You can easily make this a creamy raspberry vinaigrette dressing by adding about 1/3 cup of Greek yogurt into the blender. Now this will make the dressing thicker so you can thin it out by slowly adding in a tablespoon at a time of water or a little lemon juice until you get the desired consistency.
