Ingredients

  

• 3 half-pint Mason Jars
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 large Egg Yolks
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
• 1.5 cups water
• 1 cup Sugar
• 2/3 cup lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons Lemon Zest grated.

Instructions

 

• Get a bowl and mix the sugar and butter together for around two minutes. You should use a food processor if you have one.
• After that is a smooth mixture, add in the eggs and the egg yolks. Stir for about one minute.
• Add in your lemon juice and it will look a little curdled at first.
• Divide this mixture into Masson jars and then place the lids on the jars. Do not make it really tight though.
• Use 1 1/2 cups of water inside of the Instant Pot and place the trivet inside.
• Put the Mason jars on the trivet. Then put the Instant Pot lid on and seal the valve.
• Once sealed, click "Manual" and set high pressure for 10 minutes.
• Allow the natural pressure release to happen, which should take 10 minutes.
• Remove from Instant Pot and open the jars. Add in your lemon zest and then keep mixing until very smooth.
• Put the Mason jar lids back on, allow it to cool down for about 30 minutes. Then refridgerate overnight.
