Lemon Curd Tart
Many of you might cringe at us remaking such a classic dessert like the Lemon Curd Tart, but we promise this is just as good as the classic version you know and love; just healthier!
Creating healthier desserts can easily be achieved by tweaking a few simple ingredients. For example, in this classic, lovable dessert we've swapped out gluten-containing grains and flours in the base for nourishing nuts and gluten-free oats which make the perfect crunchy base. Then we've added things such as natural sweetener, coconut oil, and cacao butter to make a healthier curd.
Convince your friends and family that healthy baking is still delicious with this treat!
