Vegan Garlic Aioli (Oil-Free)

Aioli is typically made of a base of oil. I wanted to make a whole foods version, so I made this cashew based Vegan Garlic Aioli! Aquafaba gives the aioli a creamy, luscious texture. It’s the perfect replacement for oil in this sauce, similar to how I use aquafaba in my oil-free mayo recipe. It’s also a great dip for anybody who can’t have dairy!

Simply blend all of the ingredients together and that’s it! Ready in 5 minutes or less. You can use aioli as a dip for fries, cauliflower wings, fritters, etc… I even dipped pizza into it and used it as a garlic dipping sauce…genius!!! PS that was my boyfriends idea, you can see why I need him 😜😂
