These lemon curd muffins are the perfect little zesty snack. As a bonus it's gluten-free and can be dairy free too!
Zest the lemons and squeeze the lemon juice into a measuring cup/jug. Add the honey, stir well and set aside.
Whisk the eggs with an eggbeater or food processor. Transfer into a pot.
Heat the pot over a medium-low temperature. Add the coconut oil or butter to the egg mixture and whisk together.
Continue to whisk while very gradually adding the lemon juice and honey mixture.
Continue to whisk constantly until the mixture thickens (this may take around 10 minutes).
Remove the pot from the heat and strain the mixture through a sieve. Set aside to cool.
Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
