    Hey guys!

    Unusual, mid-week post from me! We are still going through this snow blizzard over here, and as predicted, most of the country is suffering with snow-induced chaos...

    So to keep myself warm and cosy, I've been experimenting with some recipes in my kitchen, and this vegan blood orange curd is one of them!

    Blood orange season doesn't last anywhere near long enough in the UK, and I think they are just too beautiful not to be used and featured on the blog. I also can't believe that I've never featured them before... So, trying to make up for it with this sweet, delicious and super simple vegan blood orange curd today will be a good start, right?

    I'm relatively new to the curd, as it goes. But I've been seeing it around a lot lately, and hearing all the good things about it... so I couldn't help it but try it for myself. And... I'm already hooked! The possibilities for using this vegan blood orange curd are endless, and making this white chocolate cake with it was the first thing on my list! But why stop there? It can also be used on your breakfast pancakes or porridge, in a pie, or as a filler for cookies and biscuits! Some may even say that it tastes great on toast (I'm yet to try it...)!

    As you can see, there are many things to try this delicious spread with, so I better be off then! But I will see you very soon, with another exciting recipe!

    Stay warm!

        Hi Oriana, I haven't actually measured the juice of oranges for this recipe, I just used 2 medium blood oranges. Quick Google search suggests that there is roughly about 1/4 cup of juice in a medium orange, so around half cup would be the good starting point. Hope this helps.

      This is delicious! We reduced the amount of starch and it still turned out a bit too thick, but it tasted incredible. We'll just reduce it next time. Thank you for sharing the recipe 🙂

      This recipe is so clever; I've never heard of blood orange curd before! My husband was just saying how much he loves lemon curd, but I think he'd like this one better because he's crazy about blood oranges. I'm totally going to surprise him with this soon. Thanks so much!

      Curd. It's such a funny word. Doncha think? Move the letters around a little and it's not a fun word at all! Haha. But it tastes SO GOOD! So, sometimes there's just not much in a name. But blood orange curd? Gosh. Just sounds so so good! Can't wait!

        Hey Randi! I know, it's unheard of in the UK to have so much snow, especially at this time of the year! Jealous to hear you already enjoying beginning of spring!

        Oh Julia, it's crazy! Although, coming from Poland, I'm familiar with tons of snow and bitter cold, having it in the UK always causes a huge chaos! 😉 And thanks so much, I hope you will get a chance to try this curd, because it really is delicious!

        Hey Liz,
        It is! Mainly because it's bright colours are so much needed in these winter months! And blood oranges are my favourite! Glad you like it!

      What a great idea for a curd! It sounds so bright and delicious and I would totally have it on biscuits! I'll bet it would make a great filling in some macarons as well!

      Nothing like a bit of blood orange curd spread on a scone to brighten a snowy day! I wish we had blood oranges year round!

        Hiya,
        Would this work with clementines, seem to often not get very sweet ones, I could use 3 or 4 per large orange?
