A creamy blueberry curd that’s perfect for spreading on toast or using as a filling for desserts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Combine blueberries and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until blueberries release their juices.
  2. Mash the blueberries slightly with a fork or potato masher to break them down and help release more juices.
  3. Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl, then add the fresh lemon juice and zest.
  4. Mix the blueberry mixture into the eggs while whisking constantly to temper the eggs.
  5. Cook the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until thickened, about 10 minutes.
  6. Integrate butter, stirring until melted and smooth.
  7. Cool the curd, then transfer to a jar and refrigerate.

Notes

For a smoother texture, strain the blueberry mixture before combining with eggs.
