What is Honey Mustard Sauce?
- It’s a delicious sauce, dip or dressing. It’s great on salads, as a glaze or marinade for meats like chicken and pork, or as a dip for tasty treats like chicken tenders or pretzel bites.
Ingredients needed
- Yellow Mustard
- Dijon Mustard
- Mayonnaise
- Honey
I’m using both dijon mustard and yellow mustard in this recipe. If you only have one on hand, you can use all dijon or all yellow mustard.
The honey I use is just standard clover honey, though any type of honey will work in this recipe.
You can also change up this recipe in other ways. Don’t have honey? Maple syrup can be swapped in. Want it spicy? Add in a pinch of cayenne. Want it a bit tangier? Add in some lemon juice or vinegar (good for salad dressings).
How to make it
- Simply stir together the mustard, mayo and honey and serve.
Uses for Honey Mustard Sauce
- Dipping sauce for crispy air fryer fries, chicken strips or glazed ham.
- A marinade or glaze for chicken, salmon or pork
- Dip for fresh veggies
- Dressing for green salads (you may want to thin it out with a bit of vinegar for extra tang)
- Dip for pretzel bites.
- As a spread for burgers, wraps or sandwiches
- Dipping sauce for sausage bites or steak bites
How to store it
- This sauce will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days. So I’d suggest making as much or as little as you’d like. The recipe card below can be easily adjusted to make more or less servings.

Wow, was this delish. Put it on pork chops as a sauce. The next day, we put it on a ham sandwich. Will definitely be making again.
Thanks Debbie!
Not just simple but easy. I live in a small household so I just use ratios rather than measurements. No more packaged honey mustard for me. I add a little paprika and black pepper to round it out. Fancy honeys are perfect for this. Try garlic or garlic powder. Dill is pretty good too. Thanks for the base. Its awesome on its own.
Thanks Leta!
I added a little paprika, garlic powder and onion powder, too. Chicken breasts were very tasty. Thank you.
Would this be ok as a dipping sauce for cooked king prawns?
Hi Wendy – I think that would be delicious!
Why does it say it lasts only 5 days? Each ingredient independently lasts longer than that. Thank you.
