Gluten-Free Blackberry Curd has an intense blackberry flavor it is thick, rich, sweet, and tart. OH! My! Goodness! I can’t believe I never thought to make this before. Such a beautiful and delicious spread goes on almost anything. Or at least in my house. Not only is this curd bursting with blackberry goodness and flavor but is also splendidly vibrant in color. So many uses for example use between cake layers, on ice cream, pancakes, or waffles. The uses are endless.A bowl of Blackberry Curd surrounded by blackberries, white chocolate chips, mint, and golden spoon.

Believe it or not sweet and tart is one of my favorite combinations. Needless to say, this curd is thick, creamy and so pretty. So quick and easy to make much like lemon curd. However, I added a little tapioca flour to thick the curd just a little. Blackberries are one of my favorite fruits and bring so many wonderful childhood memories to mind.

Furthermore, if you add a little more tapioca then this becomes more of vibrant blackberry sweet and sour pudding.

Gluten-Free Blackberry Curd:

Blackberries are one of my absolute favorite berries. After making the blackberry curd I found the color to be a little less attractive than what I wanted. Therefore, I allow the curd to cool for a minimum of one hour after which I stir in a little more blackberry coulis to create a more attractive color. If looking for an even more vibrant color use a few drops of food coloring as most chefs do, or additional Blackberry Coulis can be added in. Keep in mind that doing so will make the curd a little thinner.

At any rate, Refined Sugar-Free Blackberry Coulis is used in this recipe.

Tapioca is my favorite gluten-free and grain-free flour. By the way, make sure to use tapioca and not cassava flour. Cassava and Tapioca are made from the Yucca plant. To summarize, Tapioca is the starch removed from the tuber whereas Cassava is the whole tuber ground into flour. Both flours have different properties. Read my blog post: Cassava Flour Information to better understand this ingredient.

In any case, Amazon sells Tapioca Flour and maple sugar. Moreover, this curd can be as a filling in between cake layers, on top of scones, pancakes, or in the middle of crepes.
