Lactose Free Passionfruit Curd

Bright, floral, and intensely tropical, this passionfruit curd is the kind of thing you'll want to spread on absolutely everything. The double hit of whole eggs and egg yolks gives it a rich, silky body, while the butter whisked in at the end creates that glossy, spoonable texture that makes a good curd so irresistible. Because the recipe relies entirely on eggs, butter, sugar, and fresh fruit — with zero dairy in the form of milk or cream — it naturally sidesteps the lactose concerns that can make creamy dessert components tricky. The gentle double-boiler method keeps the eggs from scrambling and the curd from curdling, so patience here is genuinely rewarded. You can strain out the seeds for a smooth, elegant finish or leave them in for a little rustic texture — either way, the flavor is stunning. Spoon it over yogurt, fill a tart shell, swirl it into whipped cream, or just eat it straight from the jar with a spoon. Once you taste how good homemade curd can be, the store-bought stuff simply won't cut it anymore.
