Lemonade is one option. But, in our opinion, that’s still too much sugar. We think, if life hands you lemons, there’s a sweeter choice – yet it comes with no added sugar. This lemon curd recipe features monkfruit extract, a natural, calorie-, carb- and sugar-free sweetener that comes from a small, green Asian melon. Vegan butter and coconut butter allow you to skip the eggs and butter in traditional lemon curd, making this spread and topping totally vegan and totally guilt-free. Pucker up!
