Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs room temperature
  • 1/2 C coconut oil
  • zest of 2 lemons
  • 1/3 C honey
  • 1/8 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/2 C lemon juice freshly squeezed (about 3-4 lemons depending on size)

Instructions

  • Add the eggs, coconut oil, lemon zest, honey, salt, and lemon juice to a 2 quart non-stick saucepan. Using a silicon whisk, whisk together until all ingredients are combined. If your coconut oil is at a solid state and doesn't combine right away, that's ok - it will melt when you heat it.
  • Continue to heat the mixture over medium-low heat, whisking constantly until thickened. The lemon curd will thicken (to pudding consistency) after about 8-10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, transfer to glass containers and cool to room temperature before refrigerating.
