Honey Mustard Sauce Ingredients

You only need 5 ingredients to whip up this sauce and I bet you have all of them in your kitchen right now!

  • Dijon mustard – use the “fancy” mustard, not regular yellow mustard.
  • Greek yogurt or mayonnaise – Honey mustard sauce is traditionally made with mayonnaise, but I like to make it with plain Greek yogurt. Both work great, use whatever you prefer. You could even do half and half!
  • Honey – to sweeten the sauce!
  • White vinegar – to add a little tang!
  • Cayenne pepper and paprika – these are optional. Add a little cayenne if you want a little heat and add a little paprika if you want a pop of color and a little extra sweetness.

If you don’t have white vinegar, use apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar.

Yes! You can use low-fat or fat-free mayonnaise or Greek yogurt. If you use full fat, the sauce will be richer and creamier.

Store the sauce in a sealed jar or container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Stir before using.
