THE WORLD’S BEST homemade Whole30 + Keto Ranch Dressing Recipe! Made with dried herbs + spices, and ready in 5 minutes. Paleo, gluten free, grain free, dairy free, sugar free, clean eating.
Sorry for yelling at your eyes, but…
THIS IS THE BEST RANCH DRESSING YOU WILL EVER HAVE!
I promise you this is not an exaggeration. Hands down the best ranch dressing ever. This is coming from a total ranch snob.
Bonus? It is so healthy! This ranch is keto, whole30, paleo and dairy free. Happy dance!
Ingredients in Whole30 + Keto Ranch Dressing
You probably have everything you need in your kitchen right now to make this super simple whole30 + keto ranch dressing. Mayo (<- link to homemade because it is the best), almond milk (<- another link to homemade because it’s the best), lemon juice and 6 dried herbs and spices.
If fresh herbs are your thing, you can of course use fresh herbs instead. In the same quantities. But I prefer using dried herbs because I don’t always have all the fresh herbs I need on hand.
How To Make Homemade Whole30 + Keto Ranch Dressing
My favorite way to make this ranch is in the mason jar. First, I’ll make a batch of my homemade mayo which you must make in a mason jar.
While I have out the immersion blender, I add in the spices, lemon juice and almond milk. The whole process takes me less than 5 minutes. Bonus? It’s already in the jar I’m going to store it in!
How Long Does Homemade Whole30 + Keto Ranch Dressing Last?
Your homemade ranch dressing will last for at least 2 weeks refrigerated after making it. Just check for spoilage.
But I’m sure you’ll finish it all way before then. Because once you try this homemade ranch, you’re going to want to put it on ALL THE THINGS!

Whole30 + Keto Ranch Dressing
- Prep Time: 5 mins
- Total Time: 5 mins
- Yield: 1-3/4 cups 1x
Ingredients
- 1 batch homemade mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley
- 1 tablespoon dried chives
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt + pepper, or more to taste
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a wide mouth pint mason jar. Stir or use an immersion blender to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning to suit your taste.
- Best if refrigerated for 1 hour before serving so the ranch has time to marinate all the herb flavors. But I’ve eaten this right away before and it’s still good. Just gets better the longer it’s refrigerated!
- I like my ranch a little thicker, especially so I can easily use it as a dip with vegetables. If you like your ranch thinner, just add an extra tablespoon or more of almond milk until desired consistency.
- Will keep in an airtight container for 2 weeks.
Notes
You can also use fresh herbs if you have them on hand! Use the same measurements for fresh!

This is by far the best Ranch I have ever had in my life! I had given up on ranch with all of the artificial ingredients and MSG added in the powdered version. I will never use another recipe. Thank you so much for this gem!
★★★★★
I am so glad you loved it Ashley! Isn’t it horrifying how many awful, fake ingredients are in the powdered version? Can’t believe I ate it for so long. This version is much better, and healthier. Thanks for taking the time to let me know you liked my recipe, you made my day!
I use Primal Kitchen mayo. How much mayo would that be in your recipe? Thanks so much.
About 1.5 cups!
Made and love it! It’s truly the best Ranch dressing I’ve ever eaten. I had to give Ranch dressing up after needing to give up milk products. This is no substitute. It is truly superior to anything I’ve had before. The flavor is so clean and so fresh. Thanks for all the good work you do to bring to us wonderful and healthy food!
★★★★★
Thank you SO MUCH Francine! That means a lot! I’m the same way, I love this so much more than any ranch I had before. Thank you for taking the time to share such kindness with me!

Yea! Thank you so much Carley! I’m happy to hear you liked it!
Obsessed. No other word.
★★★★★
Courtney I have to agree with you, I too am OBSESSED with this ranch dressing!
This is delicious! I have made it numerous times now both with homemade mayo and store bought avocado mayo and it is delicious no matter what! I also mix this with the Chimichurri sauce and it is glorious.
★★★★★
I am so pleased that you like this! What a great tip to mix it with chimichurri sauce. Yum!
My husband and older daughter are obsessed with this dressing… Of course I love it as well
★★★★★
Love love this recipe. I have shared it with many of my friends and they too have made it. I use it for a recipe for a Chicken Bacon Ranch Spaghetti Squash Casserole (from JustjessieB.com). Yummo!!!
★★★★★
So glad you liked this and shared it with your friends! That just makes my day! Uh, Chicken Bacon Ranch Spaghetti Squash Casserole? Yes please, that sounds delicious!
How much mayo is one batch?
Hi Michele! This recipe calls for 1 batch of homemade mayo which yields 1 1/2 cups. This recipe yields 1 3/4 cups. Here is a link to my homemade mayo recipe: https://www.tasteslovely.com/easiest-3-minute-homemade-mayonnaise/
Hi, I was wondering what is the net carbs for that serving you posted? Thank you!!!
★★★★★
Thanks for the question. The carbs in my ranch dressing is 1.8 g per 2 tablespoons. I’m not sure if you are referring to the serving on the salad in the video, but I would guess that is about 2 tablespoons, but I did not measure. Hope this helps.
This ranch is incredible! I used store-bought mayo (Sir Kensington’s) and apple cider vinegar instead of lemon juice, and it turned out great! I might add a little less salt next time- maybe it was the store-bought mayo or ACV that made it a tad saltier than I prefer, but still delicious. So glad to have this recipe in my collection now :)
★★★★★
I am so glad you liked my homemade ranch dressing Sarah! I am thrilled you liked it enough to make it again. I really appreciate the feedback.
Hi there,
Just wondering whether I could use coconut milk instead of almond for this? Almond milk affects my gut something terrible, but I really really really want some ranch dressing.
Thanks :)
Although I haven’t recipe tested it I think coconut milk would work great for my ranch dressing Cheryl. Coconut milk has a different taste than almond milk, so that would be the only difference. Pretty much I think you could sub out any plant based milk or dairy product and the recipe would work just fine.
This looks so delish! I don’t have an immersion blender, can I just put it in my regular blender?
★★★★★
I haven’t recipe tested the ranch dressing in a blender, but I am pretty sure it would work just fine Rebecca. I sure hope you like it!
Wow! This is amazing! Even my 10 year old, who generally favors a store bought Ranch (which I infrequently buy because of disfavored ingredients), loved this! This doesn’t at all feel like “settling.” Our new favorite Ranch! I’m going to keep some in the fridge at all times, along with your mayo. Thank you for creating great recipes!
★★★★★
I am so happy you liked my ranch dressing Ana! Even better that your 10 year old liked it! That is a win, win! Isn’t it wonderful to find a healthy recipe that you enjoy and don’t feel like you are settling? I am so glad you will keep this ready made in your fridge. Enjoy!
This is the best ranch ever!! I love all the recipes I have ever tried from you…which is a lot!! 90% of my meals are your recipes and the whole family loves them! Thank you so much for all the content you put out and all the hard work you do so we can serve delicious meals to our families!!
★★★★★
Wow! Thank you so much for your very nice comment Ashely! I love sharing my recipes and when they are well received it makes it all worthwhile! I am so happy you and your family enjoy them. I am thrilled you like my ranch dressing. Isn’t it yummy?

I am so glad you like my ranch dressing Taylor! Even better that you have tried several recipes. It sure took a lot of recipe testing to get the taste just right!
Hi!! Is there anything else i can use besides almond milk?! I’m allergic! 😭😭😭 soo sad
You could substitute any unsweetened plant based milk you would like, and I am sure the ranch dressing would turn out great Alicia! I sure hope you like it!
