Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 heaping cup fresh cherries, pitted and stems removed
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons light vinegar (such as sherry or white balsamic)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (+ more to taste)
- Optional: 1 tablespoon agave or maple syrup
Instructions
- Blend. Place pitted cherries, olive oil, vinegar, and salt in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, about 30-60 seconds.
- Taste & adjust. Taste the cherry vinaigrette and add more salt if desired. If it is not sweet enough, add about a tablespoon of your favorite all-natural sweetener (such as agave, maple syrup, honey, or unrefined cane sugar). Serve on your favorite salad!
Notes
- Sweetener - To keep this cherry vinaigrette vegan, avoid using honey as your sweetener. Maple syrup, agave, and unrefined cane sugar are my go-to sweeteners for vinaigrettes.
