Here’s another great strawberry  dessert recipe. In case you can’t tell I absolutely love strawberries and enjoy finding new ways to serve them. This one takes a bit of extra planning. You’ll need to make up the lemon curd the day before serving.

Strawberries with Lemon Curd

Image and recipe reprinted with permission from https://www.foodfanatic.com and HealthyApeture.com

INGREDIENTS (serves 8)

2 pounds of organic strawberries, chopped
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons lemon zest
3 eggs
1 can coconut milk (full fat)

DIRECTIONS (to be made a day in advance)

  • Combine maple syrup, lemon juice, and lemon zest in the top part of a double broiler and place over direct heat. Heat, stirring until mixed well.
  • Beat eggs with a fork.
  • Add eggs to the lemon mixture and return to top of double broiler.
  • Place over simmering water and cook until thickened.
  • Cool on the countertop before placing in the refrigerator to chill overnight.
  • Also, place a can of coconut milk in the refrigerator overnight.
  • The next day, open the can of coconut milk and scoop out the coconut fat. Pour the liquid into a container to use in a smoothie or in another recipe. Do not use the liquid in this recipe.
  • With an electric mixer, mix the coconut fat until it resembles whipped cream.
  • Add one cup of the whipped cream to your chilled lemon curd mixture and stir until well blended. Reserve whatever whipping cream remains for another use.
  • Layer whipped lemon curd sauce with chopped strawberries.

Mmmm, doesn’t that sound so very good. I bet it would be tasty with blueberries or raspberries as well. So very good.
