You just need three ingredients to make this easy lemon curd ice-cream so it whips up in minutes. The lemon flavor comes through beautifully and adds zing to cobblers or pies.
I love lemon. It’s so refreshing.
Lemon curd is the next best thing to fresh lemon. My sister posted a recipe for canned lemon curd years ago and I make as much as I can when lemons are in season.
I also use my grapefruits to make grapefruit curd. It turns out my grapefruit curd tastes just like lemon curd so no one knows the difference.
I had so many grapefruits last winter that I made gallons of grapefruit curd (literally). Canning it took too much time so I froze most of it.
This recipe is an adaptation of All Day I Dream About Food’s keto lemon curd ice-cream. I’m not into weird sweeteners so I simplified the recipe a bit.
All you need is lemon curd, whipping cream and limoncello. The limoncello is optional but it keeps the ice-cream soft.

Do you whisk in the whipping cream or: do you whip the cream to soft/ stiff peaks and; then whisk it into the lemon curd. Reading the recipe it could be interpreted as either.
Just whisk in the whipping cream. I guess the ice-cream would be lighter if you beat it first but it’s completely unnecessary.
Pretty! This has been an extremely wonderful post.
