Simple Light Lemon Custard image

Great as a dessert topping. Ready in less than 10 minutes. Sinfully rich yet low-calorie compared to most lemon custard/curd.

Time 11m

Yield 1 cup, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon lemon rind, grated
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup fresh lemon juice (about 3 lemons)
1 tablespoon light margarine

Steps:

  • Combine eggs, lemon rind and sugar in a saucepan on medium heat.
  • Cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent clumping, until mixture becomes well combined and light yellow.
  • Add in light margarine and lemon juice, keep whisking and cooking for about 5 minutes.
  • Set aside, let cool before serving.
  • Mixture will thicken even more when cold.
  • Enjoy on top of cakes, pies, fruit, ice cream -- or on its own!
