Vitamix Lemon Recipes
Lemon curd in the Vitamix is a delightful lemon spread made with eggs, sugar, butter, and, of course, lemons! The Vitamix makes this recipe a breeze. It is so fun to watch right before your eyes as the ingredients are whipped together, heated, and somewhat magically transform into this curd, a beautiful fruit and sugar based spread.
A bright taste of lemon is such a cheerful flavor. While I eat lemon treats year-round, it may be in the winter months that I most appreciate a burst of citrus.
It was in January a few years ago that I shared a lemon curd recipe made in the microwave.Using the microwave makes the process of making lemon curd really quick and easy.
Lemon Curd Recipe
The stove top method works for making curds too. Try this orange curd recipe, raspberry curd, grapefruit curd, this vegan lemon curd, or substitute navel oranges for the lemons using the Vitamix method shared here.
My mother-in-law shared the recipe with me and I thought curd could not get any easier…until the Vitamix came along. Wow, this is no ordinary blender! I would assume that the popular Blendtec functions in a similar manner but this Vitamix continues to amaze me. The fact that the Vitamix can mix the contents in the blender to such high temperatures is truly amazing.
I thought I had a good idea to try to whip up some lemon curd in the Vitamix and, at the last minute, instead of just repeating my usual recipe I checked for a lemon Vitamix recipe in the manufacturer’s cookbook for the possibility that the chefs there had already provided their preferred recipe.
Easy Vitamix Blender Ice Cream (6 Amazing Flavors)
There was this ingredient list for lemon curd. (By the way, it is not right that if you mis-type the word “curd” that it might turn into “cRud”, which spell-check won’t fix and which is the complete opposite of lemon curd. It should be called Lemon Delight or something light-hearted and more pleasant sounding!) This is good stuff!
If you don’t have a Vitamix you can still make lemon curd on the stove top with this traditional meyer lemon curd recipe.
Here’s the trick of using the Vitamix– a high speed blender heats the lemon curd ingredients to a safe temperature for eating. You CANNOT use a basic blender to accomplish the same goal. It simply won’t “cook” the eggs to a high enough temperature for safe eating.
Vegan Lemon Sauce (5 Ingredients)
If you don’t have a high speed blender, you can still make this lemon curd recipe. Use your blender to blend the ingredients and then transfer the mixture to the stove top. Cook the lemon curd until it thickens and a safe temperature. I aim for 160 degrees F.
After you make the curd in the Vitamix, place it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Your lemon curd will continue to thicken as it cools.
, what shall you do with it? I have a recipe round up of nearly 50 ideas for ways to use lemon curd. A few of them are shared here:
Liquid Egg X Vitamix Lemon Curd
After finding such joy in lemon curd, why stop? Try lime curd too. I even used my Vitamix to whip together this Cranberry Butter which is first cooked down in the Instant Pot.
Canning at home and making small batch jams and curds have really become a source of enjoyment for me in the kitchen. If you are interested in making more homemade preserves, here is a canning resource to give more more recipe ideas!
Note: A regular blender will not cook the eggs in the way that a Vitamix will. The temperature of eggs that is safe to eat is 160 degrees F. If you don’t have a Vitamix or Blendtec then use the easy microwave method or a stovetop method.
The Ultimate Fresh Blueberry Lemonade Recipe Using The Vitamix Aer In Apr 2023
It's best to zest lemons first and THEN squeeze them for the fresh lemon juice. If you squeeze them first it is difficult and inefficient to try to remove the zest from the squeezed halves of lemon.

I was looking at this recipe because I love lemon curd and I just made lemon bars and while the curd baked in the oven at 350 for 33 minutes. Anyway I wanted to pass on a little tip that makes this wonderfully easy way to make lemon curd easier still. Instead of going to all the bother of zesting the lemons and getting so little zest in return for your effort, you can instead use you can use a vegetable peeler to remove the zest. It needs to be sharp so it doesn't remove the white pith, but just peel off a piece and see if the pith is coming off with the yellow zest. Of course the Vitamix or your BlendTec will turn to peel into liquid zest. It will work with any recipe that calls for enough liquid that can be blended smooth in the mixer. I will make the lemon curd and come back but I know I will love it. Thank you for the recipe. :))

One of my favorite recipes for my Vitamix! If you haven’t tried it yet you are cheating yourself out of a great experience. It’s done i. A wink and so smooth and creamy! We love it on pancakes, in yogurt (can you say “cheesecake”?), and on breads and muffins. It also makes a great filling for cakes. My ultra-picky hubby loves it. :)
Five gold stars!!! This is one of my favorite Vitamix recipes! I often freeze it is small containers so I can add a tablespoon to my homemade yogurt. It’s so good!
A friend got me started using a cooking blender and then brought me a bag of lemons. So what do you do when a friend gives you lemons? You make lemon curd. This recipes is so simple and so delicious! I will use the lemon curd in tart shells and also as a stand alone dessert. So tasty.
