From Plant-Powered Kitchen: This dressing uses applesauce to emulsify the ingredients and produce a surprisingly thick-oil free salad dressing! Try it as is first, and then play with some of the seasoning to your own preferences.
Using an immersion blender and deep cup combine all ingredients until very smooth. If using a blender, you may need to double the batch for enough blending volume. Taste, and if you'd like a little sweeter add another teaspoon or so of maple syrup. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper as well. If you'd like a thinner dressing, simply add a couple of teaspoons of water and blend through again.
