EASY Lemon Curd Recipe - The BEST Recipe!! 'Back to Cake Basics' Episode 

Mix 2 eggs, 4 egg yolks and 1 cup white granulated sugar with a whisk for 3-4 minutes. Pour mixture into stainless steel saucepan and whisk in 2/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice. Stir over medium heat with a rubber spatula for 3-4 minutes until it thickens. Take off the heat and add 1/2 cup unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Optional: add lemon zest. Strain the lemon curd with a fine sieve. Allow to cool and transfer to sealed glass jars. Can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Yours is the simplest recipe!! Everyone else makes such a fuss of it! I literally just whisked all the ingredients in a bowl, got it on the gas, then when warm I added the butter, whisked whisked whisked….done. 10/10 ❤️

First off, your hair is BEAUTIFUL!! 😍And super helpful recipe! I appreciate that you get straight to the point but also take the time to explain why you do certain things such as the part about using a stainless steel pot. I'm making my own birthday cake this year and I plan to use this recipe for an additional filling in the cake, wish me luck!!

Great recipe, i tried it after a fail on someone elses recipe on youtube and was very happy when i finished with your recipe it was perfect, thanks

Hi. New to your channel. Was searching for a lemon curd recipe and found you. I'm planning on making lemon cheesecake mousse. Great recipe! Thanks

This recipe is not only easy but tastes fantastic! I gave some to a friend and he ate the entire jar in a day! I don't recommend that but he said it was irresistible. Thank you. Next. Macarons!

I made a half recipe up with this and instead of sugar I used Xylo sweetener, which I blended up in the blender like a powdered sugar so that it would dissolve real easily. I also used a metal bowl that fit right inside of my Kettle with boiling water in the bottom of the kettle not touching the bowl so as not to have lumps. I think because of the Xylo I had to cook it about three times longer to get it thick. I also added just a little more butter 🧈😋. You really have to taste you in the a.m. to make sure it's sweet enough with the Xylo as I was very cautious and didn't put the full half amount at first and of course it depends on how sour your lemons are too. Thank you Tatiana for your wonderful inspiration and someday I'll try making the cheesecake as well using Xylo sweetener. 😊

He loves it!

Going to add this to jumbo lemon muffins next week, thanks!

Made this today... fantastic

Thank You For The Lemon Curd Recipe, Iv been wanting to make it for ages so I can jar it up and give it away to family and to our local homeless shelter.

I was craving something sweet when I ran across your video. I just happened to have some lemons so I made lemon curd. Your recipe was perfect! It turned out great! It’s supposed to be cooling off but I keep eating it! It’s wonderful warm. Hopefully I’ll give it a chance to get cool before it’s all gone. Thank you, that recipe is a keeper.

I’m making lemon meringue cake from how to cake it. Thanks for this

Followed your recipe! ❤ Just one difference, used a pod of vanilla, and it was goooood! 🍋❤

Hi Tatyana🌻 Thank you very much I needed this recipe to make coconut lemon macarons,I also saw a video of lemon butter cream and lemon macarons. Wow, I do not know which one to make.😍😁 Thank you very very much for sharing all the details and all the recipes.💛 Be healthy and happy with your loved ones.🌹

This lemon curd is delicious and very easy to make 👏 👏

I am going to try it. Wish me luck

Been looking for a recipe for this for a while. Glad I found yours! Looks great and I can't wait to try it out. One question I did have, about how much curd does this recipe usually give? Thank you.

My moms favourite on toast, thanks for this one 😘🇺🇸🇬🇧👍

Thank you so much. 💓 Your hair is so beautiful.

Hi Tatyana, I read on one of your comments that you suffered an injury and I hope you are recovering well and resting. Good luck and I'm praying you have a speedy recovery!

So she said that she doesn’t like the texture of lemon zest but what I learned is that you can add the lemon zest and leave it to sit while you stir in the butter and then you strain it to get the lemon zest and it becomes beautiful and still smooth, but then it has that extra pop of lemony Flavor 😊

Just made some…Thank you 😎

Yummy 😍

I just made some..my hubby loves lemon

Thanks Tatyana for the great recipes. I got to make it on Friday. Hope it turns out like yours? 😉

Very easy awesome and yummy 😋 thanks

I absolutely love lemon ... always tried finding a good Lemon Curd to stick to... I have tried so many and just was not impressed... This video popped up and decided to make it since it was a recipe that didn’t use Lemon Zest... Every Lemon Curd recipe that I made had Lemon Zest in it... This Lemon Curd is my favorite now hands down! It has that nice creamy texture not like a gel and it has the right amount of Lemon taste and sweetness... the only change I made was using a Keto friendly granulated sugar! Definitely give this a try .. I absolutely love it!

Thankyou so much a great recipe and easy can't wait to use my lemons off a friends tree.

I always look for stuff that has the simple low ingredient count to be good. at 5 ingredients i’m just going going to try yours instead of trawling all recipes chef john which i’ve seen before or others. gorgeous hair btw. Ill check out your channel next time i’m looking for more dessert ideas for my son. cake in the oven now so this will be worth making and for french toast pancakes or whatever else later.

Sound do delicious.🎉

Yummy
