Sesame 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 finish of melted coconut oil, which replaces the butter found in traditional versions without sacrificing any of that rich, glossy consistency. Fresh lemon juice and zest do all the heavy lifting on flavor here, giving every bite a vibrant citrus punch that's balanced beautifully by honey. Because the ingredient list is so clean — just eggs, citrus, honey, coconut oil, and sea salt — you never have to second-guess what's in it or worry about hidden additives sneaking in from a store-bought jar. Straining the finished curd through a fine-mesh sieve gives it that perfectly smooth, professional texture you'd expect from a fancy patisserie. Spread it on grain-free toast, swirl it into coconut yogurt, or use it as a filling for paleo tarts — it's endlessly versatile and genuinely impressive for how simple it is to make.
