Description
This lemon sauce is a tangy-yet-sweet surprise for your taste buds. Enjoy!
Ingredients
Scale
1 tablespoon butter
1 well-beaten egg
3/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
Grated rind of one lemon
Instructions
In a double boiler, mix honey, well-beaten egg, lemon juice, and salt. Add 1 tablespoon of melted butter. Stir well.
Cook until thick, stirring constantly. When thickened, stir in the grated lemon rind.

I store the sauce in a jar in the refrigerator. I enjoy it over bread pudding, fruit bread, porridge, fruit salad, and/or white cake.
If you want to use this recipe as a tart filling, simply add a second egg.
