Gluten Free Paleo Lemon Curd

Bright, tangy, and silky-smooth, this lemon curd is the kind of thing you'll want to spoon straight from the jar. It gets its luscious texture from a slow double-boiler method and a finishing swirl of melted coconut oil — no butter, no flour, nothing that would trip up a grain-free lifestyle. Fresh lemon juice and zest do all the heavy lifting on flavor, while honey adds just the right touch of floral sweetness without refined sugar. The eggs thicken everything naturally as they cook low and slow, so the result is genuinely creamy and rich without any thickeners or additives. Straining the finished curd through a fine-mesh sieve gives it that impossibly smooth, glossy finish you'd expect from a fancy patisserie. Spread it on grain-free toast, swirl it into yogurt, layer it in a tart, or honestly just eat it with a spoon — no judgment here. Store-bought versions are almost always loaded with ingredients you don't need, so making your own takes about fifteen minutes of active stirring and pays off every single time.
