I have shared my famous vegan custard recipe in the past, but nothing is better than a curd. Since I was preparing a vegan lemon meringue pie, I thought I should also share this easy vegan lemon curd recipe with you.

Traditionally, lemon curd is not vegan as it contains eggs and butter. But, it’s easy to make vegan lemon curd, compared to vegan custard, which is higher in liquid and slightly thinner than custard, with a bold, tart, and sour lemon taste. However, you can easily add more thickener to turn this curd into vegan lemon custard.

Vaikka koko resepti on aivan alla, älä missaa kaikkia vinkkejäni alempana, mukaan lukien ainesosien vaihdot, ruoanlaittovinkkini ja vaiheittaiset ohjeet!

Ainesosat ja vaihdot

• Tuore sitruunamehu – It is the best to enhance the curd’s sour, tart lemon flavor. Bottled lemon juice is often less potent. Fresh lime juice works as well to make lime curd.
• Kasvipohjainen maito – You can use any non-dairy milk. I use almond milk for this curd. It’s a blend and won’t add any flavor to the curd compared to soy milk or coconut milk
• Maissitärkkelys is the thickener in egg-free desserts. Arrowroot starch works as well but the texture is not as thick and jiggly, it’s rubbery.
• Kidesokeri or unrefined sugar, but if you use a darker sugar, the curd won’t have the same vibrant yellow color. You can use allulose as a sugar-free sweetener to cut down on carbohydrates.
• Vegan Yellow Food Coloring, turmeric, or both. Depending on how much you like color in your food, you may want to use natural yellow food coloring, liquid, or paste that works the same. Turmeric on its own won’t add a strong yellow tone.
• Vegaanivoi – This adds a buttery texture to the curd. It’s optional, but it creates a bold, rich texture that mimics regular lemon curd so well. You can also choose to use full-fat coconut cream for the recipe to add a bold, buttery texture and avoid plant-based butter. But watch oil. This adds a strong coconut flavor to the curd. Coconut oil works, but it does add a coconut flavor to the curd.
• Sitruunan kuori grated from a fresh, organic lemon.
• Salt to enhance the flavors overall

How to Make Vegan Lemon Curd

1. In a non-stick saucepan whish cornstarch, sugar, and salt.
2. Whisk in lemon juice, plant-based milk of choice, and food coloring. Bring the small saucepan over medium-high heat, whisk constantly, and bring to a light boil. Immediately reduce to low, medium heat, switch to a silicone spatula, stir, and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the vegan curd thickens and looks glossy.

3. Remove from the heat and stir in lemon zest and vegan butter.
4. Stir to melt the butter until the texture turns buttery and shiny. Transfer to a glass container or glass bowl to gently cool it to room temperature before bringing it to the fridge.

Carinen vinkit

• Don’t whisk the hot curd. Switch from a whisk to a wooden spoon or silicone spatula as soon as the liquid has boiled. This prevents from adding air and forming bubbles all over the curd. Stir in an 8 shape to prevent the curd from sticking to the pan’s bottom and gently thickening.
• Add vegan butter. Don’t skip this part for a bold, rich, buttery vegan curd.
• Don’t swap cornstarch for arrowroot powder. The texture will be terrible. You must use cornstarch as a thickener.
• Add more cornstarch for pies or filling desserts. This curd is thickening in the fridge, but if you like your curd thicker and avoid a runny vegan lemon pie filling, increase the cornstarch by two tablespoons.
• Ole kärsivällinen. The curd thickens after 3 hours in the refrigerator.

Serving Lemon Curd For Breakfast
