THERMAL METHOD

Very simple to make &amp; delicious! 🤤

I doubled the recipe and it made 3 small jars. If you're making this for a tarte filling... maybe triple it.

So so easy and delicious! My recommendation is to somehow find your willpower before you taste the curd because it’s Very hard to put the spoon down!! I’m making the double batch this time, even though it’s only me eating it. I’ll have to freeze most of it or it’ll be gone in a whiz… 
I’ve also remembered the Thickening ‘button’ on my TM6, so will try that as I’ve used it successfully before on a sauce. (I won’t be putting Megan’s recipe up, just using the setting to blend and cook)

WAY too eggy! I would cut the number of eggs by a third if making again. I would also try a bit more sweetener.

Great!  I use a small dollop of lemon curd in spinach/blueberry smoothies with a bit of almond milk.  It provides a wonderful smooth texture and richness to them, not to mention the tart lemon pop.  Perfection!

Thanks Megan! This is the most delicious Lemon Curd recipe ever!

Wow, this is so simple to make. I used xylitol. 
Literally followed exactly and there were no issues. They hardest part was separating the egg yolks from the whites.. I accidentally lost one yolk. 
The taste is amazing. I wanted to make it on a whim, but I don't have anything to use it on yet. I might just use one of those recipes suggested above  😋

The best curd I've made yet! Thank you so much!

I had some leftover egg yolks and today was the perfect opportunity to make this lemon curd. I'm speechless at how simple it is, and at how I can't tell that it's keto. The natural lemon makes this the most perfect curd ever. 5 star +

This lemon curd is soooo tasty. I had to lick the bowl.😋 thanks Megan definitely 5 stars yummo

Well I made your lemon curd With   allulose granulated sugar!  It came out great! Thank you for explaining  the difference. Using all the sugars.  Love this lemon curd. Linda kraner

Oh my gosh, that is so easy and delicious.
I am going to make this at home. Yum!

I made this for a treat for Mother's Day 2026.  OMG it was absolutely delicious.  I thoroughly enjoyed it and was able to freeze some as well.  I'm happy to report that I'm diabetic and this did not spike my blood sugar . win win win. I've saved this with my favourites.

Love this recipe! Another one from Mad Creations that you would never know was keto. I'm no baker but found it easy to make. I always do a double batch becuse it freezes so well. Thank you Megan! :)

I made this for Christmas day dessert with Megan's vanilla pouring custard. Both recipes were so easy to make and very delicious. My sweet tooth was very satisfied.

Turns out amazing every time, always a big favourite when entertaining guests, all have been. Absolutely shocked that it was Keto. A big favourite of mine.

Easy to make. Delicious to eat. Lasts beautifully for a few days in the fridge. 
I love trying new recipes and this one is definitely going into the favourites.

This is now one of my favourites. Thanks Megan.

Hi Megan, for the metric measurement are you using Australian Tablespoon (eqv. 4 teaspoons) or the American Tlb (eqv. 3 teaspoons)?

I have made it and it beautiful . It didn’t last the day :)
Has anyone tried to make it dairy free? My sister in law would like to try it but she is lactose and soy free.

This is the best cake, so easy and quick to make, we love it ❤️
