This creamy Sugar-Free Honey Mustard Sauce is nothing short of amazing! Tangy and sweet, it’s the perfect dip or dressing for all your keto veggies, salads, and appetizers. And with less than 1 gram carbs per serving, you will want to put it on everything!
To say that I am obsessed with this keto-friendly honey mustard dressing is the understatement of the year. Absolutely and utterly obsessed. I can’t stop licking the spoon as I drizzle it on everything I can think of.
Historically, honey mustard hasn’t been my favorite flavor of dressing or dip. Typically I am a ranch dressing girl. And I love my chunky feta dressing too.
But this easy recipe has made a convert out of me. I knew I would like it, but I didn’t realize I would like it this much. I eat salad for lunch almost every day now, simply so I can eat more of it.
Whip up a batch of sugar-free honey mustard sauce and let’s get dipping!
How can honey mustard be keto?
If you’ve been keto for a while, you likely know that honey isn’t remotely keto friendly. While it’s often touted as better for you than table sugar, it’s not a good choice for a sugar-free diet.
But I’ve discovered a sweetener that I love that really mimics the flavor and consistency of honey. I find myself reaching for this allulose honey frequently for both sweet and savory recipes.
Swaps for allulose honey
Now, you know I like to make my keto recipes as accessible as possible to everyone. Not everyone has access to allulose honey, so I also tested this recipe with Swerve.
I liked the flavor of the Swerve Brown the best, but it doesn’t blend in as well. In the end, I mixed it with some gently warmed avocado oil until it was mostly dissolved, before I added it to the rest of the ingredients. If you choose this route, use 3 tablespoons of Swerve in 2 tablespoons of oil.
If you can get granular allulose or BochaSweet, you can simply use 4 tablespoons whisk it right into the rest of the ingredients, as it dissolves more readily.
Ingredients
- Mustard – I prefer Dijon in this recipe but yellow mustard works too
- Mayonnaise
- Allulose honey – see above for alternatives
- Apple cider vinegar
- Cayenne
How to make Sugar Free Honey Mustard Dressing
- Whisk all of the ingredients together until smooth.
- That’s it.
Pretty complicated stuff! No, really, it is THAT easy. But if you want to thin it out more for salad dressing, simply add another tablespoon of vinegar and a tablespoon or two of avocado or olive oil.

This sounds delish! I already have ChocZero maple syrup ( has monk fruit). Would that work as I don’t need another. Thanks
I can’t see why not!
That particular brand of allulose honey isn’t available right now, what about the other two brands, Wholesome Yum and Better Taste (not sure if this one is honey or syrup)
Outstanding! That cayenne is the exact right pop that makes this recipe perfect! I used stevia for my sweetener. So yummy. No longer have to miss honey mustard on my salads <3 and now I am looking forward to using this as a marinade on my chicken, salmon and steak.
This keto honey mustard dressing is fantastic! I used 2 tbsp Choczero keto honey substitute as that’s what I had on hand, and it blended in very well and was the right amount of sweet for me.
This is the best keto honey mustard I’ve found in seven years of eating keto. It’s good on everything from salads to burgers or hotdogs.
