When life gives you lemons make this delicious lemon curd tart. It’s every lemon lover’s dream. Its the perfect no-bake summer sweet treat. My oldest is not a fan of chocolate, so this dessert is one my whole family can enjoy.

Technically you do bake the gram cracker crust fro about 8 minutes, but can we still call this no-bake? The filling gets poured straight into the toasted gram crust then sets in the fridge. Lemon desserts are some of my favorites. I have so many lemons growing this year I’ve had to start handing them out to family and friends. We’re talking buckets full, my trees are so fruitful this year!

This lemon curd tart is the perfect spring/summer dessert, its cool and creamy with the right amount of tart flavor. Serve it with fresh berries and a dollop of whipped cream, yum!

This creamy lemon tart uses butter in the crust. To make this dessert fully vegan just sub vegan butter in the crust and you have yourself a dreamy vegan tart!
