Strawberry Curd Recipe

This Strawberry Curd Recipe is a great way to use up fresh summer strawberries. Use as a spread or dessert topping. This homemade curd is bursting with strawberry flavor!

Whoa! I totally almost forgot to post this recipe. And that would’ve been a shame because this Strawberry Curd is super easy to make and packs a ton of strawberry flavor!

Back at the very beginning of strawberry season I became obsessed with making this curd. Here in California I am surrounded by strawberry fields. I tend to go a bit overboard buying a flat of strawberries every week. This curd is a great way to use up those extra strawberries before they go bad.

Enjoy this curd as a spread, topping for yogurt or even on pancakes! Slather it on just about anything.

Don’t worry, strawberry season isn’t over. You still have time to make this.
