Lemon Curd Kefir
I have always loved lemon curd, but I didn't like all the sugar. I found a way to make it sugar free and just as delicious. Lemon curd is the perfect way to sweeten your kefir or kefir cheese. It's my fast morning kefir on many days. I'm just crazy for lemon curd and kefir. It's a summertime favorite.
Servings: 2 cup
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup lemon juice – fresh

Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, dissolve the sweetener into the lemon juice. Then add lemon zest to the pan and stir to combine. Turn off the heat.
- Lightly beat egg in a small/medium bowl. Using a handheld mixer or immersion blender, slowly pour egg mixture into lemon mixture. Beat until well combined, about 10-20 seconds.
- Heat pan over low heat, stirring constantly, until it just starts to bubble around the edges. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla, and stir again.
- Place in a small container and store in the fridge to allow curd to thicken.
- When lemon curd has cooled, place kefir in a jar or bowl and spoon lemon curd on top, or place lemon curd below the kefir. It’s the perfect way to sweeten and enjoy your kefir each day.
