Instructions

Combine Ingredients: Place the extra virgin olive oil, apple cider vinegar, pure maple syrup, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic into a mason jar or another airtight container.
Shake Well: Secure the lid tightly and shake vigorously until the ingredients are fully combined and slightly emulsified, thickening the mixture just enough to create a smooth vinaigrette.
Season to Taste: Open the jar and add salt and freshly ground black pepper according to your preference. Shake again to evenly distribute the seasoning.
Serve or Store: Use immediately to dress your favorite salad or refrigerate for up to one week, shaking before each use as separation may occur.

Notes

This vinaigrette can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Shake well before each use as natural separation may occur.
For a stronger garlic flavor, use more minced garlic or allow the vinaigrette to sit for an hour before serving.
Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup according to taste.
Use high-quality extra virgin olive oil for best flavor.
