I think it would work well texture wise, but I would be a bit worried about the taste. I find that the flavour of garbanzo bean flour is pretty noticeable, and while it's a taste I love in lots of things, I'm not sure it would be good in this. However, I haven't tried, and since it's only a little bit of flour, maybe it would be fine? If you try it, let me know how it goes!
I have the ingredients, I'm doing it this weekend! I'M SO EXCITED FOR VEGAN PASTRY CREAM! Sorry, I'm weirdly invested in making this as you may remember from when you first mentioned it! I'll let you know how it goes!
Thank you! Yes, I actually made some fruit curds based on the concept a couple weeks ago, you can see the recipes here: https://tausch.substack.com/p/summer-in-december-berry-tarts?open=false#§the-finale And just tonight I did a clementine one. I had run out of cornstarch, so used potato starch and I do NOT recommend doing that, lol. If you do a lemon one similarly to the seaberry curd I made, I think that would work well. And you could just squeeze the juice rather than the macerating if you wanted.
this looks so good julia! curious how it would work with bob's garbanzo fava flour...

Any thoughts about making a lemon curd with this? looks great!
