As I made another batch of my favorite low carb keto ranch dressing this past weekend, I noticed that somehow I missed Wholesome Yum’s blog-iversary recently! No idea how that happened.
Wholesome Yum started as an innocent little hobby just two years ago, and now… well, here we are. It has transformed into a real business that I absolutely love.
Keto Ranch Dressing for My Blog-iversary
You guys, I’m still totally floored by all your support. I could not have imagined in my wildest dreams that I would have so many people coming here, reading my rambling, and making my recipes. Thank you, thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
The anniversary of Wholesome Yum starting was August 10th. The funny thing is, this is my second time celebrating (I made easy no-bake key lime pie for the first anniversary) and I have just now noticed that I began this blog on my cousin’s birthday. Not sure how that happened. Fortunately, it’s the blog’s birthday that I keep forgetting, not hers. 😉
The recipes on this blog started out as a little random. These days, I try to make to what you guys are asking for. I still get to create fun low carb recipes, but it’s even more rewarding to fill a need people have.
People have been asking me for homemade low carb salad dressings. So, I’m happy to share my go-to low carb keto salad dressing recipe.
How To Make Ranch Dressing That’s Easy & Delicious
Ranch dressing is usually made with buttermilk or buttermilk powder. We don’t have it around very often, though. I hate having to purchase something just for one purpose.
I wanted a low carb ranch dressing recipe that I could make on the fly when I feel like it, using ingredients I have all the time. Since this isn’t a sweet type of dressing, it wasn’t too hard to do. This was what I came up with, and I love it!
So, how to make ranch dressing without buttermilk – and still have it taste like ranch? It’s actually really easy.
The key is a combination of sour cream and lemon juice to create the same tangy ranch flavor. And, we pretty much always have mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, and dried herbs in our kitchen. I’ll bet you do, too!
Yep, those are the only ingredients you’ll need. To prepare the ranch dressing, just whisk all the ingredients together. Crazy simple!
The almond milk goes in last, so that you can add it gradually and adjust the consistency to your liking. You can make it as thick or thin as you want! If you have an almond allergy or don’t want to use almond milk for some other reason, that’s easy to swap. Feel free to use heavy cream, coconut milk (if you don’t mind the flavor), or even regular dairy milk if the extra carbs are acceptable.
I’m so glad I don’t have to buy store bought dressings anymore. Even though some of them are low carb, it’s hard to find one that tastes good and isn’t made with corn or soy. This homemade version tastes better and I feel better about the natural ingredients.
Ways to Use Homemade Ranch Dressing
This keto ranch dressing also works well as a low carb dip for veggies. Fresh ones are always good, but it’s also delicious with fried zucchini and squash.
You can simply adjust the amount of unsweetened almond milk to adjust the thickness, as needed. I like to make it a little thicker for a dip, or thinner for a dressing.
Aside from salads and vegetables, this dressing is amazing to use in recipes. That’s actually how I remembered to post it. It was because I incorporated it in a keto casserole recipe that I have coming up.
Stay tuned for a low carb chicken bacon ranch casserole coming up later this week (that was updated with a link!). In the meantime, you can’t go wrong with this low carb keto ranch dressing in a big ole’ salad.
Do you have other ways that you love to use ranch dressing? Tell me so that I can try them, too!

I am loving your website, can spend hours looking through the site
Chris
Wonderful recipe. I recommend using the freshest ingredients, especially with the dill. It tastes so much better this way.
Marie
Thank you so very much for all the info, recipes etc. I am looking forward in trying your recipes as well as your products.
Marcella Cooper
This is one of my staples. It’s the best dressing, even compared to store bought!
Cheri
This is, without a doubt, the best Ranch dressing I’ve ever had. And it is so easy and quick to make.
joanna
Lovely! I didn’t have sour cream so used a little double cream and one extra teaspoon of lemon, then didn’t have chives so just left them out.
Needed it immediately and it was delicious, so expect it’ll be even nicer after being left in the fridge a while. Thank you
Brenda
This is absolutely delicious. Even my picky husband loves it! He doesn’t know it’s Ranch Dressing. I call it a Herb Dressing so he will eat it. You say Ranch and he will not eat it. This is my go to Ranch Dressing. Thank you so much for a great recipe.
Stephanie
I really love this recipe! I used to love ranch, then they started dumping sugar into it. This is so good now I remember why I loved it so much!
Laura
Simply the best ranch dressing I’ve ever had!!
Kayla Strandness
Hi Maya! I apologize if this is a stupid question, I am still learning, but could I use dill weed instead of dried dill? Or is it the same thing?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Kayla, They are the same thing. Enjoy!
JOANN LABRADA
I AM FINDING A LOT OF KETO RECEIPTS ON FACEBOOK
Traci
I make this ranch all the time. My very picky son loves it. I even got him to eat carrots using it. I do add about a tbsp of white wine vinegar to it.
Linda
Have tried this recipe and I love it. I have a question,
In this recipe it says you can use watered down heavy cream and was wondering what the ratio is, how much water and how much cream?
Thank you for your time,
Linda
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Linda, You can do up to a 50:50 ratio of water and cream.
Heidi
I don’t usually write reviews but this is the BEST Ranch Dressing I have ever had! I will never buy store bought again!!! It is hard to believe something so easy to make tastes so good. No sugar, no ingredients I don’t want. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Mel
Excellent! Love this ranch..so healthy and tasty!
Liz K
Make extra! Goes great as dip. We used it for our chicken crust pizza. My husband thinks it’s not ok for me to eat as soup but idk .. really THE best ranch dressing!
Megan
Delicious! Thanks for this great recipe
Delia
This is the best, the very best Ranch Dressing I’ve ever tasted! It’s flipping awesomeness on almost everything! Xxxx
Richard Coben
I just made this ranch dressing and I’d have to say that this was the best ranch dressing I’ve ever had! I had all of the ingredients on hand and it was so easy and fast to make. My wife and I loved it. Thanks so much! I’m so happy to find this recipe and will be making it again soon.
Heather Kuhn
To Shana, Duke’s has already been mentioned, but Primal Kitchen also has an unsweetened mayo. Three different types, in fact, plain, chipotle-lime, and garlic aioli. Duke’s is way cheaper, but if you’re picky about the oil used, Duke’s is made with soybean oil while Primal Kitchen is made with avocado oil.
Jacqueline K
Creamy, smooth and only get better each day! I use this as a dip as well. Hubby loves it too! I am doing the Dr. Davis program and this is a good substitute for the nasty commercial brands in the store. I will continue to use this site, Wholesome Yum, to find recipes I can use!
Shana
What kind of mayo do you use? Are you using mayo w/ avocado oil or Hellman’s mayo? I’m looking for something low carb/lazy keto
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Shana, I make my own avocado oil mayo recipe, but if you prefer you can use a store bought. Just make sure you are getting a clean brand without canola oil.
Betty
Hello just wondering how long is the dressing good for if kept in the fridge? Best dressing ever
Karen
This is the best ranch dressing I have ever made! It is full of flavor . Thank you for sharing this. I will never buy bottled ranch dressing again
Jennifer Garcia
Delicious! I didn’t have chives and it was still great : )
Peyton Williams
Its even healthier if you replace the sourcream with plain greek yogurt instead. and it doesnt really change the taste at all either.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Peyton, It just depends on your preference and lifestyle. Greek yogurt would result in slightly higher carb count, but it does have other benefits.
Linda
If I have buttermilk in the fridge, could I use it in this recipe for ranch dressing?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Linda, You can use it in place of the almond milk in the recipe.
Tia
This is the best Ranch dressing ever! I have been Keto for 2yrs now have lost a total of 50lbs. I make a batch of this every week it is a great dip for veggies too! Thank you so much for the recipes!
Vance Phillips
Hi to all and thank you for taking my question. Want to make this recipe today, but want to know … Can I use vanilla almond milk, instead of unsweetened almond milk? Would it throw off the flavor consistency by a lot? Thank you in advance.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Vance, I don’t recommend using vanilla almond milk, it would interfere with the rest of the flavors of the dressing.
Jacquette
If I don’t like to use mayonnaise is there a substitute?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Jacquette, It’s a little runnier in texture, but sour cream works great too!
Aimee
When watering down the heavy cream with water what do you recommend the water to heavy cream ratio be?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Aimee, 50% water 50% heavy cream is best here.
Nancy
Really great dressing, indulgent yet refreshing! Perks up our salads and makes a great dip too. Brings on a salad craving even on a cold day Thank you for a delicious recipe!
Marcella
I’m not a fan of mayo. Can I use all sour cream?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Marcella, Yes, that would be fine, but the flavor and texture will be less similar to ranch. You can’t actually taste mayo in this, so I’d suggest making it as written first to see what you think and then making adjustments next time.
Debi
This dip was awesome. Haven’t tried it as a dressing but I’m sure it would be great too. This is now our favorite go to.
Sue
Hi Maya; if you could please let me know as well of the ad free version of everything would be great i find it hard where to go with it all. Many Thanks, I have not tried the meal plans yet, cleaning out cupboards, pantry, getting the tools I’m going to need to start my new way of life……thanks again Sue D

Amber Roberts
Can I use water to thin it down?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Amber, If that’s your preference, then yes.
stina
This recipe is incredible. I have my own homemade ranch dressing powder but that’s just for mississippi roast. This dressing is going to become a household staple!
MED
such a good page .. the worst part is that with so many massive ads its hard to even read it…. Best of luck!

Judy
Can I use the ranch dressing in the packet? Would it be the same?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Judy, The packet contains some questionable ingredients such as Maltodextrin, Monosodium Glutamate, and artificial flavors. While this doesn’t change the carb count, it’s not really clean keto. If you are not bothered by these ingredients, then the packet is fine. If your goal is clean keto, then I suggest giving this recipe a try!
Andrée
Très très bon. A refaire sans hésiter. Merci bcp pour la recette
Gail
I have to have this in my refrigerator at all times. I do use fresh herbs as I have them. Without chives, is use minced scallions. Delicious
Gudrun
I can not find the serving size so I can figure out the calories per serving. Please help.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Gunrun, A serving is 2 Tablespoons. It’s listed just above the nutrition facts in the recipe card.
Jennifer Cox
This is a very awesome recipe! I use this even when I’m not on Keto (I keep falling off the band wagon). My kids even love this one the most!!! By any chance is there any way I can turn this into a dip? The only thing I can think of is not adding the almond milk/diluted heavy cream. Please correct me if I’m wrong!!!!
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Jennifer, Yes! Omit the almond milk, or reduce to your liking, and you’ll get a thicker ranch dressing that is suitable as a dip! Enjoy.
Sharon Culbertson
The BEST Ranch ever!!! Love, Love, LOVE IT!
Mel
So good!!
Gabby
I don’t have sour cream. Could I just use mayo and HWC maybe in different measurements? Any suggestions?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Gabby, You can replace the sour cream with more mayo, but you may need more lemon juice to get the tangy flavor. Combine all ingredients, and then use heavy whipping cream to adjust the final thickness and texture.
Danine
Tastes very good, second time I made this I put in half the garlic powder and omitted the dill…yummy. Thank you for the recipe
Macy Riley
What if we don’t have the herbs? Will it make a huge difference?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Macy, Yes omitting the herbs will make a huge difference. I don’t recommend doing this.
Drew
how long can this keep in the fridge?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Drew, This ranch recipe will keep for up to a week in the fridge.
Jennifer L.
This is the best Keto Ranch Dressing I’ve ever had. Delicious!!
Sandra Hunt
I omitted the dill on the next round. Didn’t really prefer the taste of that. Other than that, I’d give it a 5.
Shelly
This is amazing! Make my own avacado oil mayo to start but love the overall flavor!
Heather Nalette
This is amazing. I wish I thought to look for it years ago. I would have made it instead of store bought.
Just delicious!
Thank you!
Rob
Are you using Dried Dill Weed or Dill Seed. Thank you.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Rob, Dill weed. Thanks for clarifying!
Jess
Outstanding !! Better than Primal Kitchen’s Ranch Dressing – costs significantly less and homemade using staple ingredients. FYI: I used Sir Kensington’s avocado mayo. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderfully perfected recipe!
Debbie
I have been using this recipe for over a year. Love it! I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk and it does not taste like vanilla to me. Thanks for the recipe.
Misty
Hi – could I use half and half instead of hwc??
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Misty, Your dressing will not be quite as thick, but yes it will work out fine.
Diane
I just made this, and I would say it is, by far, the best ranch dressing I ever tasted, bottled or restaurant. I followed the recipe exactly, except I used 1/8 cup heavy cream instead of almond milk. It is the perfect consistency. I wish I could post a picture. Thank you for this recipe!!!
CYNTHIA M HIGGINS
I would like to use watered down heavy cream. the recipe calls for 1/4 cup of unsweetened almond milk, how much heavy cream and water? Please
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Cynthia, 50% water, 50% heavy cream will give you a consistency similar to what you are wanting. Enjoy!
Mah-Rukh Karamat
Hello, I have miracle whip on hand…would this recipe work with that substituted for the mayo? Thanks.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Mah-Rukh, Yes that’s fine.
Cheryl
Can you use Avocado Mayonnaise or Vegan Mayonnaise? Would this change the taste?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Cheryl, Either mayo will work just fine.
Marcell
Thanks I have made some of you dishes. The recipes are alway easy to follow and come out tasty.
Linda Wilson
Best ranch dressing ever!!!! I put this up against any restaurants dressing. I made a BLT salad with a boiled egg and topped with this ranch and it was wonderful.
Allison
Great recipe! I used standard store brand mayo and buttermilk. I will continue to make this recipe! I will never buy bottled ranch dressing again! Thanks so much for posting this recipe. I will explore your other recipes too!
Jayne Fincher
This dressing is so good! I make this at least twice a week (don’t use the almond milk, we like it a bit thicker). We use it on veggies, wings, salads and chicken breasts. I have also made the BLT stuffed avocado and mushroom cauliflower risotto (husband really liked this one). I decided to go to Barnes and Noble to purchase your cookbook. We made the bacon cheddar dip stuffed mushrooms and carrot cake muffins…they were so delicious!! We are enjoying cooking our way through your cookbook!!! Thank you for the awesome recipes. Looking forward to your next cookbook
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Jayne, Thanks so much for picking up the book! So glad you are enjoying it!
Martha Dearinger
This was a hit at Christmas. My family liked it better than the mix I had always made. My granddaughter wants the recipe! I used HWC in place of almond milk. Thanks for delicious Ranch Dressing!
Debbie
Just starting my keto journey. Looking forward to trying this recipe!
Kaley
This is ridiculous… in a good way. I’m so glad to find this recipe! I long ago swore off store bought ranch with all of its nasty ingredients. Until I found one that had all food ingredients, the only problem is it’s $8 per bottle. Really thankful for this recipe. I made it today and it’s great.
Dayna
Love it. I omitted almond milk because when I finished stirring I liked the consistency. Definitely will make it easier for me to eat veggies!
KittenJen
This made the best ranch dressing! I didn’t have chives, so went a little heavier on the onion powder. I omitted heavy cream because I was out, and also added a couple drops of stevia extract for a touch of sweetness. But it was thick and delicious, great for a celery dip or to dress a salad!
Cheryl
Do you think it will mess up the recipe if i use vanilla unsweetened almond milk?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Cheryl, I’ve used it in a pinch. 😉 I think the other flavors cover up the vanilla pretty well but it’s your call how sensitive you might be to noticing that.
Jen
How many calories does it add too if you use heavy cream?
Wholesome Yum A
Hi Jen, I’d recommend the USDA Food Database to get the most exact calorie count!
Stephen
What kind of Mayo do you use? Or can we use? Really need a good ranch dressing and this looks great!
Wholesome Yum A
Stephen, I recommend avocado oil-based mayo. You can even make your own!
Christy
I have vanilla unsweetened almond milk… will that work?
Wholesome Yum A
Christy, I’m not sure that will work — it will certainly change the flavor.
Cheryl
I WILL NEVER BUY RANCH AGAIN.
Adrienne
*****YUMMY!
Following a keto diet, sometimes I have to make 2 different meals for dinner. With this dressing one dressing for everyone.
Yay to 1 carb! Thanks for posting!
Glee
My mayo has soy in it. It is organic. Is there anything I can substitute or any suggestions?
Wholesome Yum A
Hi Glee, you can still use that here but I generally recommend mayo made with only avocado oil. (You can also make your own!)
Patricia
I cannot find a dairy free sour cream. Could I sub dairy free yogurt for the sour cream? I have to be dairy free and egg free. Thanks.
Wholesome Yum A
Hi Patricia, I haven’t tried that but it should work! Let me know if you give it a go.
Carla
What spices would I need to add to turn this into a spicy ranch dressing? Hidden Valley spicy ranch is my favorite, but I’d rather make my own.
Wholesome Yum A
Hi Carla, this would go great with cayenne, chili powder, and/or hot sauce!
Lauren Stewart
I was surprised. Its good. Really good. And so easy. No need to buy ranch again.
Cathy
I have diabetes and high cholesterol. Is it ok to substitute low fat ingredients to make your keto recipes work for me?
Wholesome Yum
Hi Cathy, all the recipes on my site are designed to support a high-fat ketogenic diet. You could probably make low-fat substitutions for this recipe, but the carb count will likely be higher.
Sheena
This is an easy and delicious recipe (before and after chilling)! It didn’t take much almond milk at all to thin out the dressing. I left out the dill (just because I’m not a huge fan normally…I’ll try it with the dill at some point). Ranch is huge in our household, so I’ll be making this quite a bit. Kid approved as well.
Kim
By far THE BEST Ranch Dressing Recipe I have found!!! Thank you!
SC
THIS IS SOOOO GOOD! Thanks so much!
Shannon Warren
I am just getting started on a keto diet so I don’t do this anymore but I am looking for a keto pizza crust so I can just make the pizza myself. I used to put ranch dressing on supreme pizza. A good friend of mine turned me on to that.
Renee Broussard
Thank you so much for sharing!! I just phased off Ideal Protein Diet. Lost 120 lbs in a year. So grateful for ur low carb recipe. I love salad…but I love salad dressing too. #lifesaver #gamechanger ❤
Dina
Will this stay in the fridge for a week? I’m planning a trip and would like to take this with
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Dina, Yes, it should keep for a week refrigerated.
Nectaria
So easy to make this and DELICIOUS! Sometimes I add heavy cream instead of almond milk to make it a little richer.
Oliver
The best ranch dressing I have ever had!!!
Susan Pursel
I love it and so tasty with my fresh from the garden veggies. love it this is a keeper!
Kristin
This is delicious! I love that it’s keto.
Todd
This ranch is awesome!!! Can you freeze this?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers
Todd
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Todd! No, I don’t recommend freezing it due to the sour cream and mayo in it. The texture will be ruined.
Dree
This is an awesome recipe! I’ve made it a few times and it’s a keeper!
Patricia Foster
This is the bomb! I love this ranch dressing! OOohh so good! 🙂 I will be making this forever!!
Maya
I half-ed all of the ingredients because I didn’t wanna waste anything in the case that I didn’t like end result. LET ME TELL Y’ALL- THIS RECIPE IS AMAZING. I have never been the biggest fan of ranch because it always tasted sour to me. This tastes so fresh and is low carb and sugar?! I will be making this repeatedly. You gotta make this guys!
Helen Katz
How long can this keep in fridge?
Wholesome Yum
Hi Helen, it will stay good up to 10 days in the fridge.
Tia
Does not last long enough in my fridge to go bad
Alisha
Love it! Even better than the Hidden Valley Ranch packet! Thank you!
Marcy
Thank you so very much for this recipe! I made the recipe exactly as described and it came out delicious!
Brit
Was craving a keto soup and found your delicious 5 ingredient taco soup recipe. I made this ranch dressing and your taco seasoning recipe. Incredible, this ranch dressing absolutely transformed the soup, my husband was moaning with pleasure with every mouthful! Lol
The only changes I made was substituting homemade 24hr yoghurt for the sour cream and adding 1/8 cup heavy cream. Thank you so much for your quick and easy and so tasty recipes!
AWhit330
Found your recipe and it’s really good, you’ll think I’m crazy but add a few dashes of fish sauce to get that umami flavor and it’s absolutely perfect!
Omalleyoop
Wow! Never been a big ranch fan but I am now. We were forced to alter the recipe because of the items on hand. nonetheless, my wife who is a big fan of ranch says it’s the best she’s ever had. We are on a keto diet so we used avocado oil mayo (which is thinner than regular mayo so we only used 1T of almond milk but actually could have omitted it), didn’t have chives on hand, and couldn’t wait the hour chill time. Definitely going to double the recipe next time. Thanks
Ma
All I can say is …. WOW! I have searched for a homemade ranch that everyone can agree on for years. I gave up a long time ago. Been keto for 6+ years and just figured it was not to be. In one last ditch effort chose the first one that came up. FInally. The search is over. Thank you sooooo much!
Koren Adams
This ranch dressing is absolutely delicious! It was easy to make and it tastes better than most regular ranch dressings. I used Hellmans olive oil mayo instead of regular mayo to make it a bit healthier.
Claire
BEST Ranch Dressing ever! I won’t buy store bought dressing again!
Claire
This is the BEST Ranch Dressing ever!! I never buy store bought dressing after having this. Thank you!
Diana
OMG! First of all I made this dressing on a whim early in the morning before my fiance went to work because I totally forgot today was salad day so I quickly looked for a recipe that wasn’t difficult, I saw this one had excellent ratings and we happened to have everything on the list except milk but we had heavy cream. I am a person that thinks there’s nothing better than the Hidden Valley packet or Wing Stop Ranch so I was very skeptical but hey, this was for his lunch so I needed to act quick. As I stirred all the ingredients together I said out loud, “wow this really looks like regular ranch” my fiance agreed. I told him, okay let’s taste it, we did and we both were like WOW! It was sooooo good. I had cut the recipe in 1/2 because he was the only one taking a salad and although I have some left over, I wish I had made the full batch. This recipe is perfection and I wouldn’t change a thing. I will NEVER use store-bought or Hidden Valley ranch packets again
* oh and I didn’t have onion salt (for some reason), so I used onion powder and a little extra salt and it was still perfect
Kris
This was great!
Kelli Carolan
This recipe is amazing. So easy, and delicious.
Sarah B
Thank you so much! I would take this over store bought ranch dressing any day! Absolutely delicious. Thank you again for sharing.
Beth Hamamoto
Great dressing!! Made it , but used buttermilk instead of almond milk.
Tastes great, easy to make too
I will never use another recipe
Judy
This is THE BEST Ranch dressing recipe ever! It goes together so quickly with ingredients we always have on hand. The only thing i did differently is using Half & Half instead of Almond milk. We love almond milk but we always get the unsweetened Vanilla one and i wasn’t sure how the Vanilla flavor would work.
Ive made it several times, always with great results. Been looking for quite some time for a fabulous Ranch dressing & this is it!
Btw, yes, fresh lemons are hard to have on hand but when they are plentiful in season i peel them ( using the peel for other stuff) and pop them in to the blender & pour into the small size of cubes, ice cube trays, then freeze. Works great to just pop a cube or 2 in the dressing.
Sarah
THIS IS AWESOME!!! I’m getting into the “make what you eat” lifestyle and this is definitely making me want to continue making everything I eat. So good! No nothing that’s unnatural! Happy reader here!
Cindy
This is an amazing recipe, so tasty and simple! I will never use store bought again!! Thank you for sharing it.
Dina
Thank you for this recipe! I have made several recipes for ranch dressing and this one is by far my very favorite, it is so good. DEFINITELY was a success! And thank you for all the information you give!
Bec
Until I started getting good at reading labels, I never realized how much sugar is hidden in ranch dressing! I can’t wait to try this recipe.
Sara Maniez
My husband wants to try the KETO diet, thank you for sharing a recipe that I can try to use for our family! It looks delicious!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
You’re welcome, Sara! This is actually a good classic ranch dressing that many people who aren’t following keto also like. 🙂
Kat
Making this tonight! I thought I was eating good salad dressing by buying the refrigerated glass bottle types. Last night I actually read all of the ingredients and wow! Two forms of corn, sugar, preservatives galore and too salty. Woke up this morning and my rings are all thought. No more manufactured salad dressing. Wish me luck. I will post results. Thank you.
Brandy
I’ve made this a few times now and every time it turns out SO delicious! I’m not doing keto, but your picture looked so yummy, I just had to try it! I didn’t have any lemon on hand, so I omitted it and I used regular milk instead of coconut milk. It turned out amazing. Next time I have lemon on hand, I will make this again and see what the difference is. This will for sure be my go-to when making ranch. So much better than the powered stuff!
Michele
L am going to try this ranch dressing on a keto bbq chicken pizza. I used to get a bbq chicken pizza takeout and they used ranch dressing as the base but theirs was on the sweet side so I will just take some of the dressing and sweeten it up a bit for the pizza. Thanks Maya.
Roqui
I made this last night to go with my zucchini fries! I had a little issue finding dried chives so I used fresh but do think it would be better with dried. Love, love, LOVE!
Can’t wait to make this a weekly staple!
Unfortunely, the lemon doesn’t last in my house… My 3 year old eats them all!!

Best Ever!!!
Kayla
How long would you recommend this would be good for?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Kayla, It would be good for as long as your mayo and sour cream… about 7 to 10 days.
Helen Spillane
Keto Kitchen Warrior Goddess does it again!!! OMG!!! Thank You…. this is My all time favorite dressing.

Paula
Can a low or fat free mayo and sour cream be used?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Paula, Yes, you can do that!
Theresa
Your recipes are amazing! Thank you for so many wonderful recipes I can use for myself as a LCNewbie, as well as, recipes that will help my diabetic sister get through the holidays! The LCK Ranch Dressing is fab!
Theresa
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy to hear that, Theresa! Thank you!
Tim
I don’t know who you are but my God you have made my keto existence sustainable. After looking up and down the dressing isle we couldn’t find a single dressing that fit into needs, Nealy every one has added sugar…
Your recipe is better than other dressing I’ve had and it’s healthy without the crap.
Thank you again
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy to hear that, Tim! Please come back soon!
Tracy
This is so yummy. I should have made a double batch, I cannot stop eating it. So easy and taste way better than any bottled keto friendly dressing I have tried. I used coconut mayonnaise in mine.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Yay, so glad to hear that, Tracy!
Tanya Klein
Hi there 🙂 Can you suggest a way that this yummy recipe can be made with a bit less fat? Thanks!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Tanya, You could use light sour cream if you’d like.
Danielle
If you don’t happen to have lemon juice on hand, you can substitute distilled white vinegar if you want as well.
You can make buttermilk with regular milk (or thinned cream) and lemon juice or vinegar. Let it sit until it curdles a bit and mix well.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you for sharing, Danielle! Yes, that should work, just with a slightly different flavor.
Jodi Hollow
Died and gone to heaven with this ranch recipe!!!!!!!! DELICIOUS!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I love to hear that, Jodi! Have a great day!
Kris Andersen
Do you know how many macros are in this recipe?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Kris, The nutrition info is on the recipe card above.
Heather
Pickle juice in place of almond milk… amazing! Sometimes I also add some cilantro
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you liked it, Heather! Have a great day!
Wendy
How many servings does this make/ what is the serving size?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Wendy, The serving size is 2 tbsp and the recipe makes 12 servings.
Counselorchock
YUM! I used white pepper cuz I love it and this is DELISH. Thanks!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy to hear that! Have a great day!
Analee
I am so excited to true this recipe! I have a question though, when trying to avoid canola or soybean oil, what Mayo do you use? Or do you make your own. If so I’d love a link to your recipe! Most mayos have those pesky oils in them. Thank you, can’t wait to hear from you! Lovely website!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Analee, I usually make my own mayo because it takes just a couple minutes – here is the avocado mayo recipe.
Kelly
Ohmygoodness I just had to make a comment because this is the best ranch I’ve ever tasted, seriously!! Thanks for sharing it!!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you liked it, Kelly! Have a great day!
Felicia
I was skeptical because I’ve tried so many and didn’t like them but as I was reading recipe, I realized I had everything so I thought, why not!! This dressing recipe is off the hook good. I followed recipe exactly and wouldn’t add or change a thing. I used unsweetened almond/coconut milk because that’s what I had.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you so much, Felicia! Enjoy!
Renee
Color me skeptical. I love Ranch Dressing and I can’t help it, but I tend to be picky about it. I made this to use in your Bacon, Chicken, Broc casserole. Oh my! It is so good (and so EASY) to make. This is the best Ranch Dressing I’ve ever had. Maya, thank you!! So happy to have a great keto dressing that is so tasty, quick and easy. 🙂
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy to hear that, Renee! Thanks for stopping by!
Heather
So awesome… I substituted pickle juice for the almond milk and it was sooooo good!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I love your substitutions, Heather!
Stephanie
Do you know where to buy no sugar added bacon that is also grain and soy free? I can’t find any. The no sugar bacon I found, the pigs were fed grain.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Stephanie, My favorite bacon is from Butcher Box – you can get a discount code and free package of bacon here.
Jeanette
Love it! Quick and easy!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Who doesn’t love quick and easy, Jeanette? 🙂
Carolyn
I am a complete ranch snob, it’s sad. So I’m actually very excited to try this. I will update once I do.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I hope you like it, Carolyn! Thanks for stopping by!
LR
My favorite go-to ranch dressing. Thank you for the recipe. I don’t know why I waited so long to make my own dressing. The stuff in the store is so much and full of chemicals. I’m going to try some of your other recipes.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you liked the ranch dressing! Please come back again soon!
Sonya
Hi Maya! Thanks for the recipe. I just made it and set it to chill. I had to use diluted heavy cream as I was out of almond milk. I took a little taste before it went in and I love it. Now I will have more leafy greens in the form of salad. Glad I found this one.Thanks again.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am glad you liked it, Sonya! Thanks for stopping by!
Tammy
I’m not much of a ranch person, but my husband and kids are, I mean, we’re diehard Hidden Valley fanatics. When I switched to keto, I found this recipe and made it using homemade mayonnaise. Everybody in my household went crazy over it, including myself, the anti-ranch person. My husband says Hidden Valley now tastes weird to him (probably because of all the chemicals), and the kids practically beg for this stuff. Even my picky eater loves it!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I love to hear that, Tammy! Have a great day!
Terri
Curious as to why “nut-free’ is listed in the keywords when the recipe calls for Almond milk
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Terri, It says “nut-free option”. This is because the recipe has the option of being nut-free. You can swap the almond milk with another milk of choice, like coconut milk beverage.
Daresa Ryan
Thank you so much for this! I didn’t have any dill or almond milk, so I used three tablespoons of pickle juice to replace 🙂
Maya | Wholesome Yum
What a great tip, Daresa! Thanks for sharing with us!
Tawna
Let me just say Yummm!! So delicious. I will never buy store bought dressing again. So easy to make. I did not have chives onion powder or almond milk. Used HWC and omitted the other two. It was amazing. I wouldn’t change a thing.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I love to hear that, Tawna! Thank you!
Cecelia M
I am going to go home after work and make this tonight. I love ranch dressing but hate the sweetness they put in it. This recipe sounds absolutely delicious. Thanks!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I hope you like it, Cecelia! Have a great day!
Janie McMahan
I’ve been trying to find a substitute for my beloved ranch that was healthier and this is the only one I’ve tried that isn’t “sour” tasting. In fact, it is BETTER than any ranch I’ve ever had including Texas Roadhouse (which to me was always the ranch that no other could measure up to). So so good and I’m using the dry spices on my grilled chicken from now on because they are the perfect seasoning!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for this incredible recipe!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy to hear that, Janie! Please come back soon!
Denise
This homemade ranch dressing is delicious. Not buying bottled dressing anymore!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I love that, Denise! Thanks for stopping by!
Lisa Richardson
Wow! I made this tonight and it was incredible. I needed a ranch dip for some celery and Keto chicken wings that I made. I don’t think I’ve ever tasted a ranch dressing this good. I used your ingredients exactly – and it turned out perfect. Thanks for posting this!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Lisa! I am so happy you enjoyed the dressing! Thank you!
Jenny Wilson
Super excited to try this recipe! I love ranch but I have some weird food allergies – mayonnaise is one of them. Do you have any suggestions for what I could use in place of mayo? Thanks so much!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Jenny, The flavor will be a little different but you could just use more sour cream. Or possibly a mixture of sour cream and super thick coconut cream.
Connie
This is the most delicious dressing I ever tasted! Thanks
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Yay! I love to hear that, Connie! Thank you!
Kirsten
AHHH! This is amazing!!!! Tastes great and low carb. So fulfilling to be able to create something to eat (as corny as that sounds) and I know exactly what is in it. SO good, better than Hidden Valley!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Yay! I love to hear that, Kirsten!
Denise
Made the ranch dressing today and it is delicious! No more store bought for me. Thank you.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Denise! Me, either!
Barbara
Delicious dressing! I didn’t have any parsley or dill, but instead added fresh rosemary and thyme from my garden. I think I’ll add fresh cilantro next time! I used half and half instead of almond milk. Thank you!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Barbara! Those substitutions sound like great options, too.
Tessa
Amazing! I didn’t have almond milk so it was omitted. Packed with flavor, my husband loved it and now I can say goodbye to spending $$ on little Jars or bottles of ranch that don’t live up to the flavor of this keto ranch.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you so much, Tessa! The almond milk is just there to thin it out.
Joan Dominguez
Could someone please tell me what one serving of this yummy dressing is? I read somewhere that I should only have a small amount as to not exceed carb intake. I was hoping I could drink it! Haha
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Joan, A serving is 2 tablespoons. The nutrition info is on the recipe card.
Penelope
Instead of pouring ranch on your salad….dip your fork in the dressing…
Corinne
This is amazing – I love that it’s all wholesome ingredients without additives and preservatives!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you liked it, Corinne! Have a great day!
Kathy Humann
I’ve tried several home made ranch recipes with not very good reviews…but this one! So good! I won’t be buying bottled anymore that is for sure. Keep it thicker for dipping veggies! Thank you for such a great recipe! I did substitute my homemade thick yogurt for the sour cream and since I didn’t have dill I didn’t put that in…and came out awesome!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you finally found a ranch recipe you like, Kathy! Thank you for stopping by!
Margo B.
Sounds fabulous and I plan to make it soon! Quick question…if I mixed the dry ingredients together could I use it as a seasoning? I’ve been using the packets of the dry ranch mix like this especially in crock pot recipes.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Margo, Yes, you can definitely use the dry mix as a seasoning!
Cath
This. Is. Amazing!! Oh my goodness it’s delish!! I started the Keto diet a week ago and I was looking for a really tasty homemade Ranch dressing that fit this diet. Well I found it! I gave my husband a taste before dinner and his eyes got big and he said “What is in this?! This is amazing!” No more store bought Ranch dressing for me! Thank you so much for this recipe
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I love to hear that, Cath! Have a great day!
Jacolyn
FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Loved it! I swear I could of drank it but I didn’t. Better then any commercial brand. My new GO TO!! Thanks!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I totally get it, Jacolyn! It’s good enough to drink 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!
Tina
The reviews did not lie! THE BEST! Made the “original” and then made a second batch in which I threw in some cilantro and a jalapeno. Thank you sooo much for sharing!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I love that you added cilantro and jalapeno, Tina! Thanks for sharing with us!
Maureen Bonneau
Why is it so difficult to be able to print the recipes? I am not successful at printing unless I print every sheet. Thanks, Maureen
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Maureen, There’s a print button on the recipe card, which will take you to a printer-friendly version. Hope this helps.
Jo
I found your recipe a day or two ago. I decided to try it today because in addition to being Keto, I’m suddenly needing to avoid dairy & all of my store bought dressings have sugar or dairy or both. Not to mention all the chemicals…. Once I started making at, it occurred to me that sour cream is dairy, so I used my rather sour kefir instead. (I am choosing to believe it is no longer dairy after fermentation.) I must say this recipe, at least using the kefir tastes just like the packaged blend mixed with good quality sour cream. I will not ever need to buy pre-made ranch dressing again! Thank you so much for this recipe!!!
Jo
Minus the Almond milk. I forgot that part!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you liked the dressing, Jo! Thanks for stopping by!
Dawn
I use Hidden Valley powder and mix according to package but instead of milk I use 1/2 cup HWC combined with 1/2 cup of water. Put all in a mason jar with a lid and shake til combined.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you for sharing, Dawn!
Mary Hopkins
This was DELICIOUS! I was amazingly surprised by the taste and it was so easy. I did make homemade low carb mayo first then used to make the ranch recipe. Awesome.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I ma so happy you liked the dressing, Mary! Please come back again!
Sarah
My daughter is allergic to tree nuts, is there a substitute for the almond milk?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Sarah, Any kind of milk would work. You can try coconut milk if you’re not too sensitive to the flavor. Otherwise, heavy cream would also work.
SusanM
I love this recipe for ranch… it is the best I’ve found. I hated to let go of making my normal ranch with the powder mix by Hidden Valley Ranch but because it contained MSG, I had to find a substitute. I am trying to cut more carbs so on this recipe, I substituted the almond milk with hemp milk. Hemp milk is easy to make and doesn’t add any sweet taste.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thanks you for sharing with us, Sarah!
Eve
I’m very interested in this recipe, but am dairy sensitive. What could I substitute for the sour cream?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Eve, I haven’t tried it without sour cream since it provides a lot of the flavor here, but you could try experimenting with thick coconut cream instead. You’d taste some of that in there, but the spices would help. You would likely need more lemon juice to compensate.
Laura
Excellent! Don’t usually go for ranch dressing but this was so good in your Chicken Bacon Ranch Casserole! Thanks for the recipe
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Yay! I love to hear that, Laura!
Sue Pruitt
This tastes great, but, your math does not make sense to me.
You say the recipe makes 12 servings at 2 Tbls per serving. That equals 24 Tbsp which equals 1 1/2 cups.
But if you add up 1c. mayo, 1/2c. sour cream, and 1/4c. almond milk, that comes to 2 1/4 cups. And that’s not counting the lemon juice.
What am I missing?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Sue, I’m glad it tastes great for you! Volume is not always additive as some ingredients condense when they mix together. I measured the total amount I ended up with after mixing everything, then divided by 2 tbsp to get the number of servings. Hope this helps!
Michele
Actually it makes about 1 3/4 cup of dressing.
It’s so easy and delicious! Thanks!
Ang
1 + 1/2+ 1/4 doesn’t equal 2 1/4, it’s 1 3/4
Colleen
What is the best mayonnaise to use? I’m in NZ.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Colleen, I love to make my own homemade avocado mayo like this.
Nancy Meister
This salad dressing is amazing exclamation! It’s true that the reviews say it’s better than Hidden Valley Ranch. I’m going to pass this on to all my family, thank you so much, there are a lot of celiacs in my family and we will enjoy this.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you liked it, Nancy! Thanks for stopping by!
Marion Albares
I am anxious to try this! Always looking to cut carbs and calories! I tried the Mayo Clinic diet and lost around 25 lbs. but, have reached a plateau for several weeks now. I eat lots of veggies and fish, mostly salmon and this dressing seems like it would be good to dip my salmon in. Thanks!
Ronalyn Hurley
I tossed out my other ranch dressing recipes because this is the only one I will make from now on.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I love to hear that, Ronalyn! Thanks for stopping by!
Delia Luch
I would like to try this recipe, but before I do can I know how much is a serving? Looks delish!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Delia! One serving is 2 tablespoons and there are 12 servings in total. I hope you like it!
Jolonda
I just made this and the only thing I can say is WOW!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you liked it, Jolonda!
Julie
I love this! Made it twice already. Had to substitute a few things because of what was/wasn’t on hand but this is a total keeper! Thank you so much. I did end up putting in more herbs and seasonings than called for, but it’s really to personal taste, imho. Thanks much!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you liked it, Julie!
Becky
Do you use fresh lemon juice or the kind in a bottle? I can’t wait to try it! Thanks 🙂
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Becky! You can use either one. Thank you!
Robin
Can you use coconut milk instead of almond milk?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Robin! Yes, you can substitute coconut milk for the almond milk. It may have a slightly different taste but I am sure it would be delicious!
Pat
This is the BEST ranch dressing I have ever had. I am not a fan of store bought ranch but this is my “go to” ranch now.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you so much, Pat!
Monica Aguilar
This is now everyone’s favorite, even my granddaughter. I just put a little less dill. Thank you for all your recipes.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Monica! Glad to hear you and your granddaughter enjoyed it. My kids love it, too.
Bethany
What can you use instead of almond milk? I’m allergic to tree nuts and can’t have almond milk.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Bethany, Heavy cream or half & half should be fine instead.
Mae johnson
I just made this with coconut oil mayonnaise and it’s awesome!! I love salad and just don’t like other dressings so this works wonderful.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Mae!
Sarah
How many 1 tbs servings would you say this makes? 28?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Sarah, This recipe would make 24 1 tbsp servings.
Chris
No almond milk. What do you think about a little heavy cream added gradually to monitor thickness?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Chris, that should work if you prefer it. It will definitely have a creamier texture. 🙂
Paula
Great dressing and super easy! I’m spoiled by this. Store bought can’t compare. Thank you!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Paula!
Brittannie
How long will this keep in the fridge? I’m the only one who eats ranch in my house, therefore I don’t go through a whole lot.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Brittannie, It lasts about 2 weeks in the fridge – basically the same amount of time as sour cream would.
Elizabeth
How would you go about making this truly sugar free? I have yet to find a mayonnaise that doesn’t have sugar.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Elizabeth, you can make your own mayonnaise but I haven’t posted a recipe yet. I like to buy this one which is sugar-free: https://assoc-redirect.amazon.com/g/r/https://amzn.to/2M2WfYg
Christy Jackson
Dukes Mayo is sugar-free.
Janet Buente
I am allergic to alliums (onion family). Any sub for onion, garlic and chive in this recipe?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Janet, I haven’t tried it, but asafetida or fennel might be acceptable stand-ins.
Tracy Claassen
This dressing is really good!! I have a daughter who is lactose free so I just used Lactose free products and it turned out amazing!!
I also did, 1/2 cup of mayo, 1/2 cup of sour cream and 1/2 cup of plain greek yogurt. It turned out amazing! Thank you!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Tracy!
Betsy
This is great! I used heavy cream instead of almond milk and added about 1/8 cup more plus 1/8 tsp more of salt and a dash of hot sauce. It was perfect! Super creamy and decadent.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Betsy! Sounds amazing!
Judy
If I used buttermilk would it change the carb count?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Judy, Yes, buttermilk would increase the carb count.
Kimberly
This is a great recipe! I make mine with heavy whipping cream and pickle juice. Very popular with my kids. 🙂
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Kimberly! Love the idea of adding pickle juice, I’ll have to try that!
Breanna
Instead of lemon juice?
Michelle in New Orleans
No, instead of almond milk per previous posters.
Stephanie
I followed the directions exactly and this dressing is the best! I have a picky eater and she’s going to love this. Even if I have to disguise it in a hidden valley ranch store bought bottle.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Stephanie! Hiding it in the store bought bottle is genius!
Denise
If you need to subsistute the almond milk due to nut allergies, what would you suggest?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Denise, Any kind of milk or cream will work. Heavy cream or half & half is probably the next best low carb option. Regular dairy milk will work fine but adds carbs. Coconut milk also works from a consistency standpoint, but I’m not sure if the flavor may be a little strange.
Shells
I do cream and it is so good! Making it right now. 🙂
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Shells!
Lorri S
Made this today. Eating it now on a salad. Oh my is it delicious! And easy!! Thanks for another great recipe!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Lorri! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Lorri!
