Lime (or lemon) curd is a great way to use up eggs. I use whole eggs, but if you have some left over yolks you that works too. I also had some yogurt made with whipping cream left over from the holidays, which went perfectly with this.
Ingredients
Lime Curd
- 5 large eggs
- 1/2 cup lime juice
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup butter or ghee melted
Topping
- 1 cup fresh berries
- 1 cup plain yogurt (SCD) - made with whipped cream
- 1 tsp honey
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Servings:
Instructions
Lime Curd
- Add all curd ingredients to large bowl or stand mixer bowl (make sure butter is not hot enough to cook the eggs)
- Mix on medium speed for 4 - 5 minutes until eggs lighten in color
- Add mixture to small sauce pan
- Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously, for 10 - 20 minutes until mixture thickens - it should coat the back of the spoon and be like pudding
- Pour mixture into serving dishes - you can use whatever you like - individual or larger dishes
- Allow to cool to room temperature and then refrigerate for at least an hour before serving
Topping
- Layer berries over chilled lime curd
- Add whipping cream yogurt, vanilla, and honey to bowl
- Whip on high speed until yogurt thickens and forms soft peaks (just like regular whipped cream - it will be a little heavier)
- Spread whipped yogurt over fruit
Recipe Notes
You can also make a tart crust and prepare as a pie if desired.
