Mustard Maple Dressing

How to Make the Best Mustard Maple Dressing

This mustard maple dressing strikes the perfect balance between tangy and sweet, making it an incredibly versatile addition to your kitchen. The whole grain mustard provides a pleasant texture and bold flavor, while pure maple syrup adds just the right amount of natural sweetness without being cloying.

What makes this dressing truly special is how quickly it comes together—just ten minutes from start to finish. The combination of fresh lemon juice, fragrant tarragon, and minced shallots creates layers of flavor that elevate even the simplest salad. It’s also completely vegan, making it a great option for plant-based meals.

Try drizzling this dressing over roasted broccoli, grilled asparagus, or a hearty kale salad with toasted nuts and dried cranberries. The bright acidity cuts through rich, earthy vegetables beautifully, and the maple notes complement fall and winter produce exceptionally well.
