I really am enjoying this Sugar Free Blueberry Curd. It made a wonderfully simple breakfast layered with 0% Greek yogurt this morning.
I thought that my Raspberry Curd was the bomb so when blueberries were on sale this week I picked up enough to make this delicious curd or as my step daughter calls it “pudding”.
If you are following a trim and healthy lifestyle like I am; it’s a great way to add a small amount of fat to on plan toast or to top scones with your daily tea. You can check out the Trim Healthy Mama plan if you are interested is seeing how this fits within our way of eating.
Blueberry Curd is slightly tart but it’s smooth texture makes you want to lick the spoon clean. I had never eaten a “curd” until I started my Trim Healthy Mama journey 2 years ago. I’ve successfully lost 65 pounds and countless inches in my journey. Improved my blood sugar and A1c readings. As well as lowered the pain and inflammation from Rheumatoid arthritis. You really should check it out if you haven’t already!!
Blueberries are such a healthy treat, they are full of antioxidants and vitamins and this Blueberry Curd is a great way to incorporate them into your plan!
I rarely buy them unless they are on sale, which is sad. I need to be more intentional about keeping them on hand. The blueberry bush that we planted last year will help I’m sure.
Strawberries are my favorite berry of all. Which berry is your favorite?
I love using Gentle Sweet in things like this but if for some reason you are using a different sweetener you can check out this handy Sweetener Conversion Chart.

Could you leave the skins and seeds in there? They are good for you too. Plus I hate straining stuff!
Judy says
