One of my favorite blasts from the past is lemon curd....it is great as a pie filling, in lemon bars, on toast...on a spoon. haha I was craving lemon curd so much that I could almost taste it. You've been there right? Lemon curd is a very rich, very decadent dessert. It has the perfect mix of sweet and tart, with a nice thick buttery mouth feel. It is typically very easy and quick to make. If you love lemons, you will adore Lemon Curd!

Prep
Zest lemons if you are going to add the zest.
Juice enough lemons to make 3 cups of juice.

Making the Lemon Curd
In a saucepan, combine all the ingredients. You will want to use both of the coconut milk cans including the coconut water that separates.
Cook on medium heat, stirring constantly, until it has thickened (approximately 10 minutes) Please note when it thickens, it will thicken quickly! It will also thicken a little more after it cools so judge accordingly.
Ladle Lemon Curd into hot jars, assemble lids and rings, and process in a water bath for 10 minutes.
