Easy Lemon Curd Recipe

Cheesecake, ice cream, pancakes, and so much more is better when fresh lemon curd is added to it! This is a summertime recipe that I make year after year – no one in my house can ever seem to get enough of it. What makes this lemon curd so fantastic is the perfect balance of sweet and sour. Too often, I try lemon curds that are either way too sweet or too sour to actually enjoy. This easy recipe is the perfect balance of both powerful flavors! While there are some store-bought brands of lemon curd that are tasty, they can’t beat a homemade curd made with all-natural ingredients. This lemon curd contains no artificial preservatives or additives, unlike so many jars you can buy in the store. You can definitely taste the difference!

How to Make Lemon Curd from Scratch

Simmer a pot full of water. Add in the egg yolks, sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest to the hot water. Cook the mixture for 10-15 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove the pot from the heat. Whisk in the butter. Place plastic wrap on top of the bowl so that it’s touching the curd. Once totally cooled, remove the plastic wrap. Transfer the curd to an airtight container, like a glass jar. Store, or serve and enjoy!
