This Keto Blue Cheese Dressing is a thick, creamy and boldly flavorful dressing that goes great with some crispy chicken wings or on a salad!
I’ve been working on mastering the ultimate chicken wing dinner and this keto blue cheese dressing right here is a pretty key recipe to have on hand for the next time you make our baked chicken wings!
We’ve got the wings, we’ve got the (absolute best) homemade buffalo sauce, and we’ve got my homemade ranch dressing.
Now, it’s not much of a secret that I’m a ranch girl through and through. Blue cheese just isn’t my personal favorite. But! I learned very quickly that if I was going to serve wings to friends and family, there better be some blue cheese dressing to go with them!
I recruited their help to taste this recipe into blue cheese dressing perfection and here we are! Super creamy and thick enough to stand up to a chicken wing, but perfect for using as a salad dressing too!
Drizzle this one right over our buffalo chicken stuffed peppers or dip our keto fried pickles in it!
Ingredient Notes:
Base Ingredients – We’re using a mix of sour cream, mayonnaise, and almond milk to make the creamy base for this recipe.
Blue Cheese – You’ll mash the blue cheese into the dressing for a smooth consistency.
Lemon Juice – A little acid makes everything pop.
Seasoning – Keep it simple with some salt, garlic powder, and freshly minced parsley. You can add in other herbs such as dill or chives, if you like.
So much better and fresher than the bottled stuff!
Easy to adjust to suit your tastes by adding more herbs, more cheese, or extra lemon juice.
Serving a salad with homemade dressing always impresses guests!
Simple ingredients that you likely have on hand.
How To:
Creamy Cheese – To start this blue cheese dressing recipe add the mayonnaise, sour cream, and crumbled blue cheese to a small mixing bowl. Next you’ll stir that together with a fork while also mashing the crumbled blue cheese to work all that flavor into the creamy dressing. Mash less for a thicker consistency or just stir extra blue cheese crumbles in at the end.
Mix – Stir in the remaining ingredients and give it a taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed. Adjust the texture by adding more almond milk to thin it out.
Serve & Store – Once you’ve finished preparing the blue cheese dressing you can serve it up with something savory like some crispy chicken wings or drizzle it over salad. You can store the dressing in the refrigerator for up to a week. I’d recommend using a small mason jar to keep it fresh.
If you’d like a thicker dip, skip the almond milk altogether and check to see if it’s the right consistency. You can always stir a bit in to thin it out as needed.
Serving Suggestions:
- Dip for fresh vegetables
- Dressing for a wedge salad
- Drizzled on our Stuffed Buffalo Chicken
- Drizzled over our Buffalo Chicken Zucchini Boats

- Mix with shredded cabbage for a fun twist on coleslaw
FAQ’s:
This dressing will last in the refrigerator for up to a week.
You can use either heavy whipping cream or regular cow’s milk in place of the almond milk. Cow’s milk will have more carbs, but because we use such a small amount, it won’t change the carb count much. Water will also work, so long as you don’t add too much.
Any type of blue cheese may be used here. Use your favorite, such as Gorgonzola or Roquefort, and it’ll be delicious in this dressing.

William Dickens says
I’m not a fan of almond milk. Would heavy cream work? I know it has hardly any carbs and tastes delicious. Do you think it would be too thick?
Karly Campbell says
Heavy cream will work great! Add a little more or add a splash of water to thin it out to your liking.
Vickie says
Have I missed a garlic parm wing? If not, how about a recipe for those! We miss getting them at Wingstop (along with the fries) but a copy-cat recipe for the wings would be great! A copy-cat of their spicy Korean wings would be nice, too!
Karly Campbell says
I haven’t shared garlic parm yet, but it’s one that I’m working on. I haven’t tried Wingstop before, but spicy Korean wings sound tasty too!
Bonnie W Sandy says
Can I use the nutribullet blender to make this blue cheese dressing? I like it smooth.
Karly Campbell says
Sure, that should would fine!
