Lemon curd frozen yogurt is a delightful and refreshing dessert that combines the tanginess of lemons with the creamy texture of Greek yogurt. Perfect for hot summer days or as an indulgent treat, this recipe is both simple and delicious. Follow these steps to create your own homemade lemon curd frozen yogurt.
Instructions:
- In a medium heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and 3/4 cup sugar until well combined.
- Cut the butter into small cubes and set aside.
2. Cook the Mixture:
- Add the lemon zest to the egg yolk and sugar mixture.
- Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water).
- Cook, stirring constantly with a whisk, until the mixture thickens (this should take about 8-10 minutes). The mixture should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Once the mixture is thickened, remove it from the heat.
- Gradually add in the butter cubes, stirring until fully melted and incorporated into the curd.
- Pour the lemon curd into a clean bowl, cover with plastic wrap ensuring the wrap touches the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
- Allow it to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until completely chilled.
- Once the lemon curd is chilled, fold it into the Greek yogurt until fully combined. Make sure to mix gently to keep the yogurt's creamy texture.
- Transfer the lemon curd and yogurt mixture to a freezer-safe container.
- Cover and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm. For a softer texture, you can stir the mixture every 30 minutes for the first 2 hours to break up any ice crystals.
- When ready to serve, let the frozen yogurt sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly.
- Scoop into bowls and enjoy your refreshing Lemon Curd Frozen Yogurt!
Tips:
- Use fresh lemons for the best flavor in your lemon curd.
- Ensure the Greek yogurt is well-chilled before mixing it with the lemon curd for a smoother texture.
- To prevent the lemon curd from curdling, cook it over a low to medium heat and stir constantly.
- You can adjust the sweetness by adding more or less sugar according to your taste.
- For a creamier texture, you can substitute some of the Greek yogurt with a bit of heavy cream.
