    Honey mustard dipping sauce is a quick and easy condiment we are never without in our home,. Made with 4 pantry staple ingredients, and in just 2 minutes, you will never go back to the store-bought version ever again!

    I always have honey mustard in the fridge...ALWAYS! It's in a mason jar top shelf and to the left to be exact. 😉 This Kentucky girl, of course, grew up on fried chicken, and it was never complete without a side of my mom's homemade honey mustard. It puts the store nought stuff to shame!

    The best part? It's ridiculously easy to make. So easy that when crispy cornflake chicken tenders for dipping are on the dinner menu, my husband can even whip this up on his own without asking me for help!

    No measuring cups stress, no fancy ingredients...just a quick stir and it's ready by the time the chicken comes out of the oven!

    ⭐️ Heather's Pro Tip ⭐️ - I usually keep either Duke's or a brand like Primal Kitchen's mayo stocked in my fridge and personally prefer these 2 specific brands. Use whatever you like but make sure to use actual mayonnaise and not a Miracle Whip or salad dressing as that will completely alter the flavor of this Mayo mustard sauce.
