Sweet Dijon Yogurt Dressing Recipe

Prep: 5 min

Ingredients

3/4 cup 2% Greek yogurt
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Juice of 1 fresh lemon
3 tablespoons olive oil
2–3 tablespoons warm water (adjust for consistency)
1 1/2 teaspoons dried dill
3/4 teaspoon dried oregano
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Sea salt and pepper to taste

Steps

Step 1

Combine the Ingredients

Add all ingredients to a mason jar or lidded container , Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, honey or maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil, dill, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

Seal the lid tightly and shake vigorously for 30 to 60 seconds, or whisk in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Make sure everything is well incorporated so the texture stays silky.

Step 2

Adjust Consistency

Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of warm water to loosen the texture. Adjust depending on how you want to use it , keep it thicker for dipping or spreading on sandwiches, or thin it out for drizzling over salads. Taste as you go and customize the balance: add more mustard for extra spice, more honey or maple syrup for sweetness, or a little more lemon juice for brightness.

Step 3

Chill Before Serving

Refrigerate your dressing for at least 30 minutes before serving. This resting time allows the dried herbs to rehydrate and the flavors to develop into a perfectly balanced finish. Shake or stir well before each use.

Pro Tip: Use a squeeze of fresh lemon juice right before serving to refresh the flavor. It also helps the dressing stay vibrant and tangy even after a few days in the fridge.
