Elevate your salads, veggies, and snacks with this easy homemade Ranch dressing recipe, made even more accessible with a simple buttermilk substitute. Say goodbye to store-bought dressings—this creamy, flavorful Ranch is quick to make and uses ingredients you likely already have on hand!
To create that classic tangy base, start by mixing milk with a splash of fresh lemon juice to make a homemade buttermilk substitute. This adds the perfect touch of acidity without needing real buttermilk. Next, blend in mayonnaise and sour cream for that rich, creamy texture we all love in Ranch dressing.
The flavor comes alive with a mix of fresh chopped parsley and minced garlic, delivering an herby, garlicky kick. For seasoning, add salt, black pepper, and a hint of onion powder, along with a dash of dried dill for that authentic Ranch taste. Whisk everything together until smooth, and you’ve got yourself a perfectly balanced, creamy dressing that’s bursting with flavor.
This homemade Ranch is versatile enough to use on salads, as a dip for fresh vegetables, or drizzled over baked potatoes. The best part? You can adjust the flavors to your liking—add more garlic for extra zest, or thin it out with a bit of water if you prefer a lighter consistency. With this easy recipe, you’ll never want to go back to store-bought again. Enjoy fresh, homemade Ranch anytime!
