An easy to make, slightly sweet vinaigrette honey poppyseed dressing that goes great over fruit or salad. Or especially this spinach apple salad.
Guys.
And girls.
All of you.
This is my new favorite dressing.
When I was making a salad to go along with a dinner I had the other day and was originally going to attempt homemade ranch dressing, which I was dared by a friend that I couldn’t do as well as Hidden Valley.
Well, my friend might be right about that part.
I instead opted to make this honey poppyseed dressing and I couldn’t wait to try it. I made a special trip to go buy poppy seeds and everything.
It’s a great pairing with fruits as well as salad, and especially salad with fruit (I used it in my spinach apple salad).
Make sure you use liquid honey and not the raw honey that you have to scoop out of the jar, it won’t mix well.
As soon as I tried this I immediately turned around and made a double batch because I knew it wouldn’t last long.
The double batch probably lasted for about 12 servings, but if you just want to make a small batch you can cut the proportions below in half.
So good and so simple! Only oil, honey, apple cider vinegar and poppy seeds.

Had this dressing at a hotel in Florida and had to go home and make it. I did and it’s fabulous. I read that someone added pink sea salt , I’m going to try this. The goat cheese really works well with this salad too.

AMAZING RECIPE!! I highly recommend trying it! The balance of flavors are absolutely perfect. It’s a tiny bit sweet but not too sweet, and the poppy seeds give it a great texture and flavor. This is now my new favorite salad dressing.
Although I do have one question, that is: Does the dressing need to be refrigerated since all the ingredients can be left out at room temperature?
