Fructose Free Lemon Curd

Bright, silky, and intensely lemony, this curd is the kind of thing you'll want to spoon onto everything — toast, scones, yogurt, or straight from the jar. For anyone managing fructose intolerance, a classic lemon curd is actually a surprisingly friendly treat, since it relies on eggs, butter, granulated sugar, and fresh lemon juice rather than high-fructose fruits or hidden sweeteners that can cause trouble. The double-boiler method keeps the eggs from scrambling and builds a luxuriously smooth texture that no store-bought version can really match. Whisking in cold butter cubes at the end gives the curd that glossy, velvety finish that makes it feel genuinely special. Straining it through a fine-mesh sieve removes any zest solids, so what you get is perfectly smooth and clean on the palate. Once it chills in the fridge, it sets into a thick, spreadable consistency that keeps beautifully and tastes like pure sunshine.
