Easy Homemade Lemon Curd Recipe

I don’t know about you, but I could use a little sunshine in my life right about now.  Everyday is cold, snowy, windy, cloudy, repeat. So I pretended it was summer and got into the kitchen to whip up a jar full of citrus sunshine. Lemon curd!

My daughter and I were practically fighting over the last spoonfuls of this lemon curd.  I mean, I let her have it because I’m a nice mom, but I really wanted it!

The BEST Lemon Curd Recipe

Never had lemon curd? It’s almost like lemon pudding with pure unadulterated lemon flavor! It makes you happy when you eat it. For real.

Spread it on toast, pound cake, ice cream, or anything else you want to perk up with some lemon goodness. Or just eat it by the spoonful 🙂

    I’ve only made lemon curd once in my life and that was a few years ago. Seeing yours makes me want to get busy and make it again. After all, nothing says springtime like fresh lemon curd.

    YES! I’m so with you! After Christmas, all I want to do is makes lemony goodies because it’s so grey and miserable and lemon is the only thing that helps. This curd looks like a great help during these awful winter days. 🙂

    YES to everything citrus right now! I love lemon curd – especially stuffed inside of a vanilla cupcake. 🙂

    I love lemon curd. I especially love it on crepes! They are such a good way to eat it. I long for summer as well, maybe this would help it feel warm and sunny at my house, too. 🙂
