Dutch compatriot Puck Pieterse won the sprint for second place in the year's fourth Monument race, 1 minute 29 seconds back, with Poland's Katarzyna Niewiadoma-Phinney taking third.
Victory completed a successful spring Classics campaign for the 29-year-old Vollering, who also won the Tour of Flanders, Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and La Flèche Wallonne.
This was only the 10th edition of the women's Liège-Bastogne-Liège race, and Vollering, who also triumphed in 2021 and 2023, said she had dreamed of winning it before it even existed.
"I really love this race, it brings back for me so many good memories," she said.
"Being still a club rider riding here without there even being a women's race yet, I was already dreaming about it without knowing if there would ever be a women's race.
"Then finally we got one, I became a pro and I win for the third time here."
A former winner of the Tour de France Femmes, Vollering was the overwhelming favorite for the race and she delivered in style.
She attacked on the tough Côte de la Redoute climb, the same place where men's winner Tadej Pogacar has launched his victory bids in the last three years, and crested the summit with a small gap over Pieterse and Niewiadoma-Phinney.
That pair was joined by Anna van der Breggen, who came home in fourth, but even though they collaborated well, Vollering rode away and her lead gradually increased to the finish.
Canadian world champion Magdeleine Vallières finished eighth almost two minutes down, with Tour de France Femmes champion Pauline Ferrand-Prévot of France 22nd, more than five minutes behind.
