Easy Apple Curd Recipe

Add the apples, cinnamon, lemon juice, and water to a pot.

Stir and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat over with a lid and cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring throughout this time, until the apples are soft.

Remove from the heat and blend in a high speed blender until smooth.

Pass the apple puree through a sieve to make a smooth curd, alternatively skip this step for a slightly more textured curd.

Return the apple puree to the pot and heat over a medium heat.

In a small bowl mix the cornflour with 2 tbsp cold water.

When the puree has started to boil, add the cornflour and whisk until smooth. Reduce heat and cook for a further 2 minutes until thickened, continue to whisk to prevent any lumps.

Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly before stirring through the vegan butter. 

Allow to cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
