Fall in love with our Keto Sweet Lemon Curd!
Lemon curd is probably one of the most understated desserts out there. Its subtle sweetness and zesty flavor makes it an ideal summertime treat that everybody can appreciate. It's light, but creamy so it could easily be classified as a dessert comfort food. If you're on the lookout for something absolutely delicious, but sugar-free then this is low carb dessert is the choice for you!
Amazingly, this recipe only calls for a few ingredients which is always a time saver! However, you may notice an ingredient on the list that stands out from the rest. Powdered psyllium is a form of fiber that comes from the Plantago Ovata plant's seeds. Not only is it a great source of fiber, but it's linked to heart and pancreas health, too! You read that right–this dessert is keto-friendly and there are a few hidden health benefits, too!
This recipe is pretty simple to whip together, but keep in mind it's best if it chills overnight and is served cold. If you aren't a big ice cream fan but love cold treats then this could be a great go-between. Not to mention, with no added sugar you will probably feel a little bit better about indulging in this tasty dish. This recipe makes five portions so be sure to invite a few friends over to share with you.
Another thing you'll appreciate about Sweet Lemon Curd is how well it pairs with any meal. Whether you are whipping together a quick lunch or want the perfect side for dinner, this recipe is the perfect addition. You simply can't go wrong when you serve up a dessert that's this tasty and refreshing! Be sure to make your own batch ASAP and let us know how much you loved it.
