CREAMY RASPBERRY VINAIGRETTE

Creamy raspberry vinaigrette is a delicious, healthier homemade salad dressing recipe perfect for any salad!

Provided by Julia

Categories     Salsas, Sauces, Spreads, Dips, Dressings

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1.5 cups fresh raspberries
1 tablespoon water
1/3 cup olive oil or grapeseed oil
3 tablespoons white vinegar
1/3 cup plain yogurt*
1 Tbsp honey, to taste
3/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat the raspberries and 1 tablespoon of water in a small saucepan over medium heat, covered.
  • After a couple of minutes, juices will begin seeping out of the raspberries. Use a fork to mash the raspberries and allow the mixture to come to a gentle boil.
  • Remove the cover from the saucepan and allow the mixture to gently bubble for a couple of minutes, ensuring the raspberries are completely softened. Add the honey and stir to combine.
  • Pour the raspberry mixture into a bowl or container and place it in the refrigerator until completely cold.
  • Using a fine strainer, strain the raspberry mixture into a bowl, separating the pulp from the syrup. Press the raspberry pulp into the strainer to get out as much liquid as possible. Save the raspberry pulp for a smoothie or to put on ice cream later, and use the raspberry syrup for this dressing.
  • In a small blender (I used my magic bullet), combine all of the ingredients, including the raspberry syrup. Blend until completely combined and creamy. If you don't have a blender, you can whisk all of the ingredients together in a bowl vigorously.
  • Serve on your favorite salads!
