Aaahhh summer is almost upon us my friends!!
Yes! Summer is so amazing here in Western Washington!
We deal with months and months of “liquid sunshine” so when the actual summer arrives it is
A B SO LU T E L Y fabulous!!
Lemon to me is the flavor of summer.
Oh, don’t get me wrong, I have been known to make this in the dead of winter, but who could blame me?
It is like sunshine in a jar! And it couldn’t be any easier!!
Bonus is that this is a low-carb recipe version people!
No guilt.
I love that!!
I had been wanting to try my hand at making homemade curd when I came up with this recipe, but just worried that I would mess it up.
Usually when something requires me to stand and stir for an extended period of time something inevitably goes wrong.
My ADD gets in the way and I am stirring, stirring, stirring……Oh, look at the squirrel!
Then I am off doing something else and
WHOOPS…..THE CURD!!
But that was not an issue with this technique.
It was UBER simple, and pretty much foolproof.
Well, it is foolproof as long as you make sure to put everything in a big enough bowl!
The first time I made this I used a bowl that did not leave room for the curd to boil up, which it will do, so I had lemon soup all over the inside of my microwave.
Not fun!
Now that I have the process down?
Oh, I have been making jars, and jars, and JARS of it!! I am not joking!
I put this on low-carb french toast (or even plain toast), pancakes, crepes, muffins…….or just eat it by the spoonful.
It.is.SO.good!!
Although I am kinda hoarding this all, so I can enjoy them all myself

Make a batch of this luscious creamy low-carb lemon curd recipe in a fraction of the time, and with less muss and fuss, just by using your microwave so you can jazz up your keto pancakes, crepes, muffins, and more!
prep time: 5 Mcook time: 5 Mtotal time: 10 M

- 1/2 cup unsalted grass-fed butter

How to cook Quick Low-Carb Microwave Lemon Curd
- Melt the butter in a large microwave-safe bowl in the microwave for around 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds, or until fully melted.
- Whisk in the sweetener, and lemon juice, and whisk until smooth, then whisk in the eggs.
- Cook in the microwave on high in one-minute increments, whisking well after each minute until the mixture thickens enough that it coats the back of a spoon. The time may vary depending on your microwave’s power.
- Once thickened, transfer into an airtight container or jar, pressing plastic wrap onto the curd to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set.
