Instant Pot: Homemade Orange Curd 🍊

Orange curd is typically served with scones or toast for breakfast or brunch. It is used the same way you would use jam. It is also used as a filling for desserts as well as a topping for ice cream or cakes.
In our house, we use it almost exclusively for our Skyr (what you may call Icelandic yogurt).

Steps
- 1
In an oven-safe glass bowl (I use PYREX) that fits inside your IP, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, sugar, orange juice, lemon juice, orange zest, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
- 2
Wrap the top of the glass bowl tightly with aluminum foil to prevent condensation from dripping into curd.
- 3
Create an aluminum foil sling sturdy enough to lift bowl in and out of IP.
- 4
Pour 1 cup of water into the bottom of the insert. Place a trivet inside and using the sling, lower the glass bowl into the IP.
- 5
Close and lock the lid, turn the steam release valve to the Sealing position and pressure cook on High for 9 minutes.
- 6
When the timer completes, allow the pot do a Natural Release for 10 minutes. Carefully release remaining pressure using Quick Release.
- 7
Open the lid and remove the hot bowl. Remove the foil. The mixture will look soft like cooked custard. Whisk the curd vigorously, then while whisking, add the softened butter a few pieces at a time until completely smooth and emulsified. (I often use my immersion blender for this step).
- 8
Let curd cool to room temperature, then cover it with plastic wrap (touching the surface) and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until thick. I usually chill overnight and eat this with our daily Skyr.
Tips
If needed, you can always reduce the sugar.
