Easy Keto Lemon Custard
I made this easy Keto lemon custard for my in-laws who were visiting us. They do not eat sugar free r follow a special diet but they didn’t even notice that this was any different than a regular pudding. Many recipes for custard have a lot more steps and included separating egg yolks or using a double boiler but it is not necessary. Just by turning down the heat while baking this custard will turn out perfectly.
