Lemon Pie Curd (vegan)

Ingredients

• • ¾ cup lemon juice

  • 1 cup granulated sugar

  • ⅛ teaspoon ground turmeric

  • 1 ½ cup coconut milk (or other vegan milk)

  • 5 tablespoons cornstarch

  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest

Preparation

• 1. In a saucepan, combine the lemon juice, zest, sugar, turmeric, milk, and cornstarch.

  2. Place over medium heat, whisking constantly to dissolve the sugar and to prevent lumps as the mixture thickens.

  3. Bring the mixture to a low boil, then reduce heat to simmer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring regularly (mixture should get quite thick).

  4. Remove from heat and spoon out the lemon curd over the pre-baked and cooled vegan pie crust.
