A tangy and savory homemade sauce, this chipotle aioli is ready in just 5 minutes using a jar and immersion blender. A seriously addicting sauce, you’ll find yourself putting it on all of your favorite Whole30 and Keto recipes. It adds some serious chipotle lime flavor to just about anything!

Don’t be afraid to make this homemade chipotle aioli

I’ll admit, until I tested this recipe, I was a little intimidated by making a homemade aioli or mayonnaise. I was never quite sure how to get the oil to emulsify and thicken up and was worried that I’d just waste a bunch of perfectly good avocado oil.

I’m happy to say that all of my worries were for nothing. Using an immersion blender, creating this creamy sauce takes pretty much zero effort. The immersion blender does all of the heavy lifting for you and the results speak for themselves. Just give it a try – you won’t regret it.

Tips for making homemade aioli

Although making this chipotle aioli sauce is super easy, there are a couple of key tips to follow to ensure success.

• Make sure you use a container or jar that is just slightly wider than your immersion blender. This recipe was designed specifically for a pint jar or a 2 cup pyrex measuring cup. The ingredients and the immersion blender will just barely fit in – that’s exactly what you want.
• When you start blending with the immersion blender, hold it at the bottom until the sauce turns thick and creamy. You’ll see it change color and texture. After the bottom of the jar turns creamy, slowly move the blender up to the top of the jar. Plunge the blender slowly up and down a couple of times and that’s it.

Why make your own sauces?

We love making our own seasonings and sauces at home. They usually only take a few minutes to throw together and are cheaper and better tasting than most store bought blends or sauces. Not to mention, you control the ingredients so you don’t have to worry about sugar and other common ingredients being added in. Check out these posts for some more ideas:
