This is my go to recipe for lemon curd! I make mine with Meyer lemons which make a beautiful orange yellow color. I always double and use the whites for a homemade angel food cake. Thanks, Sam, for such a delicious and easy to follow recipe!

Hi Chris! Key limes should work. You shouldn’t have to change anything, just exchange the lemons for limes. 🙂

I live in California and while I don’t have a lemon tree I do have a key lime tree that is dropping tons and tons of key limes. Would this recipe work with key limes in place of Lemons? Would it have the same quality or would I need to adjust? Thanks!

Great instructions. Just the right amount of detail. Love this curd. It has a perfect depth of flavor and an ideal texture.

I’ve never made lemon curd before, and was kind of scared to get started. but it really was easy. I ended up adding about a half teaspoon of pure vanilla to this also and it turned out really great. I’m going to use it for filling cupcakes.

Bought back wonderful childhood memories. Have recently retired and really enjoying cooking at leisure again. Great taste, beautifully thick, very easy to make. I kept the temperature down quite low (electric glass hot plate) as I didn’t have a thermometer and it turned out perfect right on the 10 minute mark. Thank you for sharing such a perfect recipe.

This is my go to recipe! I absolutely love it. I’ve made it twice to fill lemon cupcakes and the last time I made it to use on toast. It is delicious on buttered toast 😋! I am making orange now and I can’t wait to try it on toast too! Thank you so much for this amazing recipe!

Hi Kristen! It sounds like it needed to cook a bit longer. Definitely take a peek at the video if you haven’t already. I hope that helps! 🙂

In reply to Sam.

my lemon curd turned out tasty but it was too liquid. I followed recipe perfectly. What went wrong?

I’d give this 10 stars if I could! I recently tried a microwave method, and was so disappointed with all the unavoidable chunks of cooked egg in it. Yours worked perfectly! I had the stove on very low, and stirred it ever few minutes. I didn’t time it, but it took well over half an hour to finish. It was already gelling as I passed it through a metal sieve, (My microwave recipe never set—even though I did the spoon test—and I had to rewarm it and add cornstarch to thicken).This will be my only recipe from now on! I’m making cheesecake filled chocolate Easter eggs, and a dollop of the lemon curd will be the yolk. I also can’t wait to try lime, orange, grapefruit…..

Hi Monica! If you ever have doubts, it’s best to use the weight measurements. 🙂

Did you measure the sugar or weigh it?

Which do I use–3/4 cup or 150 grams?
